Unfortunately, winter’s not yet over. However, pretty soon an abundance of spring flowers will start to unfurl from the barren ground. There are many varieties of blooms that flower in early spring, but perhaps the most symbolic is the daffodil. Here are a few others you can look forward to seeing, as well as some interesting facts about those unforgettable yellow flowers.

Crocus

The earliest varieties of crocus, like crocus chrysanthus, crocus sieberi and crocus tommasinianus, bloom through the snow, reports LoveToKnow Garden. These blooms are very small and usually blossom in purple or yellow hues.

Glory-of-the-snow

These star-shaped flowers feature a multitude of colors and can bloom as early as February, according to Weekend Gardener Monthly Web Magazine. Blue, pink and white varieties all exist and are very easy to grow if you’re looking for something to plant in your garden.

Winter aconite

These flowers aren’t that spectacular when compared to other blooms, but the fact that they provide pops of yellow during early spring when nothing else is thriving may be their finest attribute. The flower, which resembles a buttercup and tends to emit a honeyed fragrance, can bloom as early as January.
