SPRING BEAUTIES

Spring may come late to Northern Wisconsin but is a treat once it arrives. The natural setting of Cottage Glen is home to many wildflowers and happy bulbs and flowering trees in homeowner's gardens.
Residents planted daffodils to welcome all.

Path through the woods in early spring. Lots of light.

Snowdrops....the first sign of spring

Crocus

The Korean Dogwood....first tree to bloom with berries in fall


Magnificent Magnolia



Hellebore...the 'Lenten Rose' and an early bloomer

Tiny bulbs planted in fall, Anemones, also known as windflowers, spread happily
