Last year, we literally missed spring; we were stuck indoors except for essential shopping trips. We are lucky enough to have a little garden which we could enjoy and be outside without leaving the house, but even so it's not the way to enjoy the spring.
This year, it's still pandemic. We're not locked down and we are allowed anywhere in the autonomous community of Aragón-we've been to Zaragoza a couple of times, and to Huesca to get our first vaccinations.
Now it's April. I had daffodils in my garden,
I know there aren't so many but they were the first ones; later there were some lovely narcissi in between them.
This is a photo I took to identify the white flowers in the foreground, which are probably radishes, but you can see some of the lovely yellow narcissi as well.
There have been tulips-not so many, and lots of grape hyacinths, which do very well here.
At the right time the plum trees were lovely, although ours had such a radical professional pruning it wasn't lush!
What really is lush, gorgeous, is the bird cherry down the road.
Here is a little corner in Jaca where I found what I think is apple blossom, cherries already setting and bay.
