Here's my front lawn surrounded by daffodils, narcissus and polyanthus.

A riot of colour
This is my new glider where I sit enjoying my garden or reading.
We had lots of crocus in the lawns, which died off just before we cut the grass and there are lots of other plants springing up/budding to look forward to i.e. tulips, peonies, lupins, lillies, roses, azalea, clematis, acer, jasmine, budlea, nasturtiums, lavender and the lilac bushes. I also have on order 160 summer flowering bulbs, which should be arriving anytime to plant out. In the next week or two we plan to go to the garden centre to buy plants for the hanging baskets and troughs. I love garden centres and always spend far too much because I can't resist what they have on offer.
Did I tell you I LOVE Spring and my garden?

Oh my gosh I love this as well. Love all the flowers and the colors...sensational :) Thanks for sharing :)
Youy have a scentsational yard! ;) I think it is quite lovely and would very much like to sit with you and enjoy it!
Great pictures! Hopefully I'll have some of the beach in a few weeks.
Ah ... so that's what spring looks like! I'm afraid I've totally forgotten after the winter that we've had and seem to still be having.
Your yard looks just lovely and I'd be in that glider of yours all the time were I in your shoes! I do love sitting in a nice glider and it's one of the things I really miss about my old house - along with my front porch. Sigh ...
I adore primroses and haven't had any luck with them in my yard so far. I'll try again - they're so gorgeous. And I love your brick wall and ironwork fence!
Lovely flowers, and I could kill for that patio set. After a dry March the rains have come, with a vengeance. Still it's good for the lawns. Our lawn was attacked by moss and it's been scarified - I'm scared even to look at it now.
I took a photo of some Polyanthus but til I read this post I had no idea that was their name! Lovely garden .. I can see sitting in the glider and enjoying the view
Yes, m'dear...I always think of YOU this time of the year because I know how much you love Spring and Summer!!!
I clicked on a few of your photos - your garden is so LOVELY!
And so is your home!
Thank you for sharing the delights of Spring!
Have a glorious day....X

Your garden is spectular! I love every one of the flowers you mentioned, but unfortunately they do not love this Texas heat.
YOur front yard is so very charming with your brick walls and iron works.
Adorable back patio.

And well you should love it, it's beautiful!
The colours are much brighter in real life Thom, so pleased you enjoyed the post.
Why thankyou Quilly, I'd love you to be able to sit and have a cup of tea with me and enjoy it too. x
How I envy you Beach I'd trade my garde for a beach any day!
Days when I can sit in the glider reading or snoozing are my favourite days Linda :)
I like my garden wall too Julia and we painted the ironwork just last year so it does look nice at the moment.
We've had the table and chairs for a few years now Valerie and oil it every years to keep it looking nice. We have some moss in the lawns too but we're working on getting rid of it.
Polyanthus are such a vibrant plant and very hardy Daryl - I love them.
I wish I could share them with you for read Ron. When are you coming over here???
Aw thanks Bee I'd love to share more. x
Such a shame these plants won't grow where you live Pam but at least you can share mine. x
I'm so pleased you've enjoyed my garden Jannie :)
I love daffodils too Snow, I've even had enough to cut and bring into the house!
Cheers Cloudia
Thankyou Nitebyrd I'm lucky. :)
