Xanthic #AtoZChallenge

X, for me, is the hardest letter of the alphabet in the Blogging from A to Z Challenge.  I think all of us A to Zers struggle with this letter.  I've used this particular X word (xanthic) too many times but it is perfect for spring. There are so many yellow flowers associated with spring where I live: tulips.  Daffodils.  Forsythia.  And even more.

So, I'm revisiting the topic of Xanthic.  Or, in plainer language, Yellow, especially related to flowers.

The dictionary defines xanthic as yellow, or yellow-like.  That works for me, because I have lots of yellow flowers to show you from this spring.  Some are still blooming.

Tulips, neighborhood, April 22.  I like photographing them from above to get the interior in the picture.

Yellow daffodil, my yard, April 22.
Fringed yellow tulip, my yard.  I only had one of these beauties come up this year.
Short tulip, variety long forgotten, my yard, April 23.  Now, isn't that Xciting?
