Spring Flowers on Amelia Island

Azaleas bloom at Williams House

 Springtime comes early most years on Amelia Island and this year is no exception.  With temps in the mid eighties the past week everything seems to be blooming.  The gardens around Williams House and all up and down city streets are letting mother nature appear in her full glory.  Regardless of your color preference, you can find something to your taste.  Of course along with the beautiful flowers comes loads of pollen and the leaf change over for our large live oaks. I’m not sure why they shed leaves in the spring instead of the fall like most other oaks, but they are in full leaf replacement mode and Byron has already done one large leaf sweep with more to come.  Keeping the Koi pond clear is an hourly battle.  We will be getting back to high 70 temps later this week and into next week, which is great since we aren’t quite ready for summer to begin this early.  It’s a great time to visit on Amelia Island!
