Early Spring Flower Ideas

Ah Spring, what a magical time of year. The cold of winter is starting to leave and the air is filled with that special feeling of renewal. Spring is a great time for flowers. Today, I'm going to point out six early spring flowers. Whether you're out to plant some flowers or just like to gaze, these six flowers are great.

Iris

Iris can be found all over the place—deserts of Europe, the Middle East and all across North America. Irises have varied color, but my favorite is the purple Irises.

Snowflake

In North America, we haven't seen too much of these. They are mainly on the east coast. I love their sort of droopy attitude. They are nice crisp white flowers. There is also a summer Snowflake.

Ghostflower

It might seem like a ghost, because you may have yet to see one. This is a pretty flower that's lower to the ground. It flowers in March and April typically and it's native to the Americas.

Early Star-of-Bethlehem

This flower is also called the Radnor Lily. It's a vibrant yellow flower and found mainly in the Mediterranean and central Europe. I love the look of this flower. It has six petals and it can flower as early as January.

Easter Redbud

Absolutely magnificent is how I'd describe the Easter Redbud. It's such welcomed splash of color on the landscape.

The flowers are various shades of pink. You can find the Eastern Redbud in the eastern part of the United States and Southern parts of Canada, like Ontario. These flowers cluster bloom starting in March typically.

And there you have it. Six great Spring flower ideas. If you're going to plant any flowers, see if any of these will work in your region. If not, go online and check out the pictures. They are worth a look.
