Today's Flowers: Winter beginning to end


We had a small wet snow on Thursday morning and I decided to see if the camellias were doing alright.

They are still in the early bud stage and don't seem to have much if any damage.

I like the way buds and flowers look with a little snow on them.

It warmed up and since Thursday we've had pretty cold nights but much warmer days. I shot my helleborus this Saturday and it's close to blooming.

Do lado de cá do equador, pelo menos inde moro, não vejo neve, e acho incrível com estas flores em botão resistem à uma neve assim. Lindas fotos!
