Spring Color at Tower Hill Botanic Garden

I wasn't in the mood for a long hike this afternoon, but I thought it would be fun to check what was in bloom at Tower Hill.  Snow drops, crocuses, mini irises and witch hazel, as well as a few things I can't identify made for a bright and cheerful Easter afternoon.

      Yes, I think so too. I may have gone a little overboard on the crocuses, but they were so pretty!!!

    Crocuses look like little jelly beans. Definitely an Easter thing!
