These photos were taken right on my doorstep here in Langebaan. I don't know all the flower stories yet, but according to those who have lived here much longer than I have, the fact that these little blooms are already appearing is a wonderful sign. They tell me this is only the "weed" stage… a beautiful promise of the spectacular flower season that awaits us in August. I can hardly wait to see our West Coast transformed into a breathtaking carpet of colour once again. Our beautiful South Africa… covered in colour. 🇿🇦🌸💜💛 I will keep you posted with photos weekly....
