Aloha Friday! Spring

Photobucket

Yay- It's Aloha Friday!

My Aloha Friday question is:

Are you dreaming of Spring yet??

Photobucket

I'm dreaming of Spring and dreaming of giant Alliums (Better known as ornamental onions). They are big (6" diameter flower) and gorgeous! I was sad to learn they are a fall planting bulb, {sniff, sniff} but I'm going to throw caution to the wind and plant them in the Spring anyway.
'Cause I'm just impatient like that.

Hopefully, soon I'll be searching online for a nursery to order my beautiful onion bulbs from.

That is, if winter would ever go away!!

Head on over to An Island Life for more Aloha Friday questions and to play.

Have a wonderful weekend!

  15. Yes! Very ready to say good buy to the ice, winter coats, and staying inside. I would love to see the sun again. Of course along with that comes the bugs, humidity and all that. Still I am looking forward to going to Disney World this spring :)

    Here in Minnesota, Spring comes long about May so we have a long time to wait yet...though I did see robins the other day.

  23. I love spring, but I like winter too. I hesitate because I have allergies that act up in the spring, but I love the flowers and warmer weather. Sometimes it goes right to being hot here in SC. (sorry, this is what, Aloha Tuesday for me?)
