Imbolc 2021

This week we marked the start of Imbolc, which in the Gaelic tradition is a celebration of the start of Spring. We are about halfway between the Winter Solstice and Equinox. The days are lengthening and plant life is stirring. In observance of the day, I decided to go out into my garden to see what plant life was stirring. Here a few pics taken on February 1st.

Red Flowering Quince (Chaenomeles speciosa)
Daffodil (Narcissus)
Cup Plant (Silphium perfoliatum)
Hyacinth (Hyacinthus)
Giant Coneflower (Rudbeckia maxima)
