Flowers, intimately – Photo Wednesday

Above photo: winter clematis in bloom. A real winter treat. Scented too!

Today’s garden visit is an intimate one. Up close and personal.

Meet crocus.

And the bees are out… in February. This is certainly a mild winter!

Time to get out in the garden and do some weeding. And enjoy the buzzing activity.
