Jiro and crocuses
Every year, I plant crocuses in this earthenware bowl and bring them inside when they start to flower. Jiro posed obligingly in the sun this morning. In spite of the sun, it's been a very cold day here with a biting wind that didn't encourage me to go out. I still have to finish pruning the roses but preferred to spend a lazy day inside instead.
I don't know whether I love the crocus or Jiro more. I planted roses today, but won't prune the existing ones till I am (nearly) sure we won't get another frost. Another month or so. That's my excuse and I am sticking to it.
