Fresh Hope

Great to hear from Joe .... no need to link to his message as 5600+ views suggest everyone has seen it atop the Popular page :-)   

Spring appears to be dawning across Britain and beyond, even in the Alps.

Here's hoping it's no false dawn.

This  corydalis certainly thinks it is Spring.  Raised from seed out of a Vienna garden it's appearance does not match the name on the packet
but it's a little beauty nonetheless.
