lilies

a martagon lily, also known as a turk's cap can be found from Portugal as far east as Mongolia                                                                                                                               

there are 50 species of water lily, and in 2015 USPS hadthis one in four different colours.  Half a billion (!) were printed in anticipation of interest in them

 
this white lily used to be the provincial flower of Quebec as shown in this 1960s era stamp.  it was later changed to the blue iris which more resembles the fleur de lys

daylilies are a hardy perennial known to spread across a sunfilled garden

greenery

 

It is always exciting when the first green leaves start popping up

but having a permanent green liveried tram would help get you in the mood for spring

then again, you could immerse yourself in the green of a canal cruise in the Ardennes

congratulations

yellow houses

the most visited museum in Austria is where the Mozart family lived from 1747 to 1773 

this was the home of the Liechtenstein family until 1935 when the Nazi's took it and then the Czechs and  Prince Aloys II left for Vaduz. They never got it back and are still in legal battles over it.
