“Almost Spring” in Central Park

Even after a warm winter like this one, I am always eager to get out and enjoy spring as soon as we get a good day. 

 

As a result, I end up visiting Central Park when it is “almost spring.” 

Not much is blooming yet, but there will be tons of daffodils in a few weeks. 

They are already starting to come up. 

 

In the meantime we have crocuses and irises. 

This is the first time I have seen Iris Reticulata.

I saw some photos on Instagram and thought I knew where to find them, so I headed to Shakespeare Garden on the west side to check them out myself.  I guessed right. 😉

In sunny spots, the forsythia is starting to bloom. 

 And the early cherry trees are making an appearance. 

All in all, it looks very promising.  Can’t wait.

Here are more photos from spring in Central Park...
