Gorgeous! Where I grew up in CA we only really got dusty-colored, prickly little wildflowers, mustard, and lupin in the spring. (Lovely, of course, but less exuberant.) I'm about as in love with midwest (and now, north-east Atlantic coast) spring flowers as I am with snow. So much color! The first time I ever found a lilly-of-the-valley in Chicago I about fell over; my only experience with them was as drawings on boxes of English soap, and for some reason I expected them to be much bigger, like daffodils.
