golden bulbs

A neighbor gave me some crocus bulbs, I planted them last week around the backyard trees, where I will see them from my kitchen window. I never had crocus in hand before- the papery coverings on the bulbs have a gleaming, gold/copper hue, rather pretty.
It really felt like burying treasures in the ground, to dig wedges out of the damp, dark soil and tuck the little golden orbs out of sight.
Here's for some early spring flowers!
