first flowers

I am abysmally bored with accounting, and have only a moment, but I wanted to post just a couple of images of my new flowers. This is the first time I have ever had a real garden (all of my own design) and bulbs, and I love looking out my office window to see:

and my new crocuses:

We planted nearly two hundred bulbs -- daffodils, crocuses, and tulips (which are about to bloom), and I thought two hundred bulbs would just look so extraordinarily crowded. And ha. They barely make a real dent in the beds. (The beds are large, though.)

This winter, we put in a bunch of shrubs; I'll be adding quite a few more things, like althea ferns and some grasses and some plant I saw which had wonderfully deep purple leaves (I can't remember the name). More photos when I get those up. And when the tulips bloom.
