These fields bloom in early spring for optimal blooms. The public is welcome to visit for a small fee. Take a peek at these beauties. First some close-ups:
Here are the fields:
Hope you loved the beautiful display & cheers to all!! Don’t dismay, spring is on her way!
Cindy, these are beautiful!
Aren’t they lovely! Thank you!
My son and family live in Carlsbad. Wonder if they have seen those fields. What riotous color. And even in photographs they brighten up the last gray days of winter here. Thank you!
Oh, I am sure your son must know of the fields…..urge him to visit with his children, there is ice cream and a play area, all quite nice for a young family…..So glad they brightened your day!
How beautiful! Is it possible spring is in fact on it’s way despite the snow and galeforce winds battering us here lol…these are lovely with such an abundance of colour and sheer joy in living
I have always loved them and my annual trek to visit the fields, signals the start of spring for me. Cheers to you & Wolfie!
Next time you must take Wolfie with you! I would like to smell the sweet scent of spring in the air again
I would so love to be Wolfie’s dog sitter and he would love the holler….Wonder what he’d make of the coyotes?????
These flowers are beautiful! I wish I was there! Great job!
Thanks so much, they are quite beautiful! Cheers to you~
Wow, I have not seen them in the big field like that.
Yes, it is quite a special sight! Cheers to you~
So lovely!
Merci beau coup!!
Loved the pics, Cindy. I’d like to place an order for a barrel of that sunshine…, you know…, just enough to get me through to springtime here. Those flowers are gorgeous.
Paul
Whomever learns to ship sunshine will be wealthy indeed!
That’s my special treat for today. Thank you.
So glad I was able to provide that & cheers~
Those are beautiful – so many petals. I wish I could nap in those fields!
I love ranunculus because of the fragility of the petals and the beautiful appearance of so many layers. Thank you for noticing!
Gorgeous gorgeous – beauty brings joy! Thank you for your blog.
Yes I agree! Flowers make me happy too! Thank you for visiting~
Wow, these pictures are breathtaking! It is interesting the different effect between the close ups and the fields, they almost look like different flowers. I love them both, but the closeups bring out color variations and give you a real feel for the differences between each flower. I live in Canada so the only flowers I’ve seen in bloom so far are crocuses and snow drops. It looks a lot warmer where you are, and you have found some real beauties. Plus you sure know how to take a picture!
How kind of you thank you! Your comments are very much appreicated. I love your blog and think it is VERY important, but sometimes I have trouble accessing it….my computer freezes up, hopefully this is just my quirky computer……I will try again & cheers to you!
Hi Cindy, beautiful fields of colour, it lifts ones heart! James
So glad! It does this to me as well. Cheers to you~
These are SO beautiful – is this near where you live?
It takes about an hour for us to get to the fields which are right on the coast. We are inland. Thanks for popping by & cheers!
Wow – lucky you!
When I saw your post I couldn’t wait to open it up, knowing there would be wonderful pictures, but these are gorgeous!! I never knew or heard of this place when I liked in No. California – I’ll reminder for later travels.
Northern & Southern California are like different states. I think generally that No. California has more natural beauty, but there are many beautiful areas down here as well and this is surely one. Cheers & thanks!
wow wow wow …. (are there rattlesnakes hiding among those beauties???)
Not a one……at least that I’ve seen. Rattlers prefer brush, so you are very safe!!! Plus the ocean is next door. Beautiful spot & cheers to you. No rattlers spotted at the holler yet either…fingers crossed!
Gorgeous flowers. I only discovered them a couple of years ago, but I love their layers.
Yes. They are my favorite flower due to the delicate layers. Thanks for stopping by~
Love the colors!
Thank you…pretty gorgeous phenomona! Cheers to you~
Vibrant colours! Like a rainbow.., beautiful!
and this is just the earliest blooms! thanks Judy!
Hi Cindy- These are gorgeous! You mentioned spring – but when specifically? Are you getting these already? wendy
Wendy-
Yes they are blooming now. These are the earliest blooms. They will continue and get better for another few weeks….but are gone by late spring. Congrats on your new business! Great to hear from you!
WOW, wow! Stunning, I wish we could grow these successfully here in Alberta. We got snowed under last night with more forecasted….urrrg.
Even here they bloom for a short time in very early spring only. I agree with you. They are lovely flowers. Cheers~
It’s like a breath of summer in the middle of winter blahs. Thank you!
So glad to offer a glimpse of spring. Cheers to you!
So beautiful Cindy I love the multicolours and ruffled effect. The fields are like rainbows of colours
Aren’t they lovely! When I was young we would fill our car trunks with them and fill each room….now one cannot do this~
Oh that would’ve looked so colourful and happy
Oh my, nature’s display at its best. Thank you!
Thank you for the appreciation & cheers to you~
