miniatures

I headed to Maudslay State Park this morning for a walk in the woods and a search for early flowers. The park is an old estate that is full of azalea and rhododendron (blooming later in the spring and into summer). It also has spots where early spring flowers tend to pop.

I walked by my usual crocus spot thinking there wasn't anything blooming. I was so wrong! When I looked a second time I saw snowdrops, miniature daffodils, and crocus in bloom.

The miniature daffodils are amazing! The flowers are 1 to 1 1/2 inches long - tiny in comparison to their normal-sized siblings.
