More of the purple flowers from the other post, this time still growing, and with a bee in the photo too!

We haven't see this before and haven't an idea of what it might be

Some wild daffs at the bottom of an Arbutus tree

Thanks Ladies, we've had 2 days of sun and about 18C away from the water. We even mowed the lawn last evening, just in time before Coronation Street.

I can't believe the difference a few days of sun can make ! Everything is just shooting out of the ground. The birds are chattering away and splashing in the birdbaths. Spring has sprung and it is warming the cockles of my heart !

Thanks for sharing MG99. I luv the white flower that starts as a pink bud. I wonder if Growin would know what that was? Yoo Hoo Growin!

MG99, wonderful photos and the Fawn Lilies really bring back memories. I kinda grew up on Galiano Island on weekends, etc and one of my favorite things to do as a kid, when I wasn't doing gyprock work, mixing cement, etc., was to find one of the mossy-lichen rock outcrops, lie on my back, watch the sky, listen to the ocean & wind in the Arbutus and at this time of year there'd be lots of Fawn Lilies blooming all around.

I believe the purple flower is Sisyrinchium (Olsynium) douglasii (Douglas' Blue-Eyed Grass) but not sure. The white one might be Cardamine angulata (Angled Bitter-Cress) but can't say for sure either. The past few days have sure been nice and a very welcomed change from the snow we had last week Wednesday. The ornamental plums are in full bloom everywhere and the nursery I work at is already in "panick stations".

Happy spring!

Thanks Growin. I'm very interested in wildflowers so I hope we continue ot share on this thread.
