March 20th is the first day of Spring. Daylight Savings time kicks in so we have more daylight after work and the weather is warming. For many people Spring is a favorite time of year. I have heard friends say that it is a time of renewed life as trees and flowers bloom. For these folks Spring creates an overwhelming sense of joy. Then for some of us it is a stepping stone for the summer season.
The warmer weather of Spring is caused by the actual tilting of the earth’s axis toward the Sun. This increases the amount of daylight which increases the warmth of temperature. In order to offer more daylight for outside activities, the majority of our states convert to Daylight Savings time.
In the United States and United Kingdom located in the Northern Hemisphere, Spring time is defined as March, April and May. However, in the Southern Hemisphere, countries like Australia and New Zealand are experiencing autumn. In that Hemisphere Spring time is defined as September, October and November.
While many of us are officially observing the season of Spring, countries like Sweden are not. In Sweden, Spring is defined as the first occasion on which the average temperature exceeds zero degrees Celsius. This is tricky because of the many varying elevations in Sweden. As you might imagine, while one geographic area of the country has exceeded zero degrees Celsius, higher elevations have not.
Spring time like all seasons brings extreme weather conditions that we have be mindful of and stay vigilant. Flooding is common in some parts of the country as snow and ice masses begin to melt. Streams and rivers are taxed at this time of year and many times are not able to handle the additional volume of water. As their banks overflow, communities can be in danger of flooding. Then there is the issue of the warmer air coming in contact with the colder air that has not yet stopped streaming down from the North and South Poles. The effect of these two air masses causes the threat of severe weather which can be dangerous.
There are numerous Spring flowers and some of the ones to first appear are below:
- Lilies – Trumpet shaped blooms coming in a multitude of colors, Lilies are fragrant and elegant.
- Daffodils – Colors of peach, apricot, orange, coral, white and yellow the Daffodil is a frilly delicate flower.
- Lilacs – Found in several varieties, Lilacs are colorful and very fragrant. Despite the old wives’ tale that if is bad luck to bring them indoors, their blooms of blue, pink, white and lilac will brighten up any home.
- Tulips – These amazing spring time flowers are very low maintenance. You plant the bulbs in late fall or early winter. When they begin grow an bloom in the spring.
Our professional floral designers at Maher’s Florist are eagerly awaiting to assist with a lovely spring flower bouquet as a gift or for yourself.
