To me, nothing says Spring like photographing the first crocuses of the year. Most years – they bloom in the DC area before the first of spring. This year – I photographed the first crocuses of the year at a local garden on the first day of spring.
Here are a few crocus photos I”ve taken in recent years – hope you enjoy this little burst of spring.

What flower signals to you that spring has arrived the way that crocuses do for me?
