Love seeing all this orange!
According to the official calendar, spring arrived yesterday. It was ushered in by our neighboring master-planned community with a gorgeous Indian paintbrush show.
There are three distinct kinds of paintbrush growing.
I first noticed the splash of orange earlier this week as I drove past an area where a small crop of paintbrush bloomed last year. Now it’s definitely large and in charge!
These look almost reddish.
As much as I enjoy seeing them, I wish they were sprinkled among the bluebonnets that are in another area of the community. Having orange and blue together reminds of my beloved alma mater, the University of Illinois.
Hail to the orange (Indian paintbrush), hail to the blue(bonnets)! And, especially, hail to spring!!
