Breathless Spring" is a phrase that pops into my head every year this time. All surrounded by flowers coming in and out of bloom really fast after the winter hellebore: magnolia, plum and cherry blossoms, zoom, zoom, wild radish, ceanothus, azaleas, wisteria, wild geranium, zoom, cymbidium, callas, that flowering onion........
It's crazy! But yet, but yet-
It's the delicate spring green that first appears on foliage and tender leaves that leaves me chanting "breathless spring....breathless spring.....So fragile and ephemeral. It's a quality of delicacy that just can't possibly last.
