These are a couple of shots of a small forsythia branch that I pinched off of the bush and brought inside and stuck down in a cup of water. That's all I did. About a week later - blooms.
Guess you could say I made spring come to me!

These flowers are almost a rich buttery yellow! Lovely photos!

Forsythia is so beautiful. One of my favorites. It's the first thing I plant, wherever I live.
That'll work. Very pretty flower blooms. Hope you have a great Monday.
Well at least you have Spring somewhere. I write this in the midst of a mini blizzard.
Love the lighting / dark background ... how nice :-)
The forsythia is a true harbinger of spring. Still too early here. I went to a bulb show where I saw some today, though.
So pretty.
Ahhh, what a great way to bring color to you. Nice pics for Mellow Yellow Monday. I have never been here before, I will be back. PEACE!!!

It gives me hope that spring is just around the corner!
I played too :)
An incredibly beautiful shot. I can't wait for mine to come into bloom.
You're so lucky to have spring come to you so soon :) well, they are so beautiful and cool.
Happy Women's week!
Spring is in the air :)
Yours is the magic touch!
I have got forsythia in my front and back yard but it's not yet in bloom. I love forsythia. Your photos are lovely and I think it's a great idea to take details of a flower! Thanks for sharing.
I didn't mind at all.
I love your flowers and the color is super gorgeous! nice shots!
You made me remember springs driving along Long Island's parkways and suddenly realizing that the forsythia have bloomed - spring is here!

You're making me jealous again with this forsythia, Carletta!
That is lovely, and yes, it seems you did bring a bit of spring into your life! I love the music on your site, too. Enjoy the day and happy women's week to you!
It's always like a peaceful retreat to come here. Beautiful flowers. It's gray and gloomy here today and raining, but there are LARGE wonderful patches of grass showing. Spring is on the way!
Great color and beautiful flower
So very pretty!
You did bring spring forward a good leap. Such wonderful colour on this bloom. Thanks for cheering my day on a cold and wintery evening when a snow blizzard is blowing outside.
Such beautiful flowers... yellow always cheers me up!
What lovely yellow flowers!
Hugs and blessings,
What a great idea.
Oh, Carletta, I have had Forsythias blooming like this since New Year, but never in a million year could I make such a beautiful macro of this tiny flower.

Very lovely Forsythia, so beautifully coloured. Great photos, Carletta.
What a great way to enjoy Spring a little sooner than nature has intended! Beautiful macro!
Carletta these are one of my favorite blooming shrubs...I think they are so bright and beautiful in the early spring.
Great photos...thank you for the picture of these. I haven't managed to get one to grow since moving from the east coast!
See you in a bit for RT!!

Today as I was driving around looking for spring flower photo ops I was thinking of your post (at your other blog) of forcing the Forsythia. We have a hint of the color showing on the Forsythias, but not much. Great idea to bring it to you.
