Now Voting--- Assignment #87: Spring Flowers

The description of the topic is very simple, spring is upon us in the Northern Hemisphere and flowers are starting to bloom after a long winter. Let's see your best spring flowers. Of course, for those in other climates, the general topic of flowers is probably good enough.
