many thanks, Cindy, Anne and Carol. Had hoped it would bring a bit of colour & hope for those who still have snow on the ground, -- hope that it will soon be gone.

Had left camera in vehicle as we parked at the garden center, but when I suddenly saw this lovely array of colour, went back and got the camera, as couldn't resist trying to capture the cheerful sight.

I agree with Cindy, Alandra. This is surely a pick-me-up photograph.

Wonderful color and scenario for a photo op.
