Fleurs pourpres du printemps

Here's a slideshow featuring some of the purple flowers around our yard and the vineyard out back here in the Saint-Aignan area (Loire Valley, France). They are bellflowers (campanules), lilacs (lilas), and local wild orchids.



We are eager for the weather to start its predicted warming cycle now, after several days of chilly, gray weather. Where is springtime? Behind us?
