The muscari or grape hyacinths are out. They love it in our garden, they grow everywhere. They even grow through cracks in the drive. A definite case of thriving on neglect.
Your muscari sketch is accurate and charming Ken! Huge drifts of them are emerging now in my Dallas, Texas garden. I invite you to join other like- minded artists here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/botanicalart

I live with my family, near Leeds and not far from open countryside. We have a small garden with wild areas. I like to go out for a stroll when the weather's good.

Lovely painting...and they smell gorgeous too (the real ones, that is!)
