Spring flowers galore

Post by Wynette:

In Ferrol near the ria not long after we started the Camino Ingles

Before we left for this trip Charlie and I speculated whether we’d see lots of spring flowers. We did expect to and we have not been disappointed. I talked about the ice plant and gorse early on our trip. And we’ve seen countless azaleas and wisterias and rhododendrons in full bloom. April is a great time to be here for the flowers.

We’ve seen several domesticated plants that have escaped into the wild such as Easter lilies and nasturtiums.

Nasturtiums especially like to escape
Jupiter’s beard in the wild. I have these in my front flower bed at home, thanks to my neighbors Linda and Sally whose seeds blew into my yard.
In O Porto de Bare just above the beach. Not sure what these are.

We’ve posted in this blog about some beautiful home gardens we have seen. We enjoy looking into people’s yards at the flowers they are growing.

And lots of geraniums
