Our crocus & daffodils are blooming and the roses are well on their way, leafing out like crazy.

I'd give up my flowers any day to live in Montana!

I'm so glad spring is starting to show its face.
Nothing says spring like the first blooms we spot in our gardens. It will be awhile before anything else blooms here in Mo., but I'm excited to see my Crocus, and the green foliage of other spring bulbs. :D

I don't wanna make you guys mad at me but I am ready to pick my second crop of green beans and peas. The first vine ripe tomatoes will be up this week and I am already up to my ears in jalepenos! Sorry but that is what I have instead of seasons!

Yes!!! We have fresh new daffodils just beginning to bloom. It is so fun to see the first flowers of spring, even before spring.

On Flag Day in VT, NH, and Maine, you can count on tulips roses, all the spring and summer flowers being in bloom at the same time!

Almost forgot to tell you....
Now I live on the south Texas coast. I have a lovely crop of thistles about a foot high all around the edges of my front sidewalk....

I had planted tulips the fall before last and I looked out one day and there they were, pinching off the buds before I even had a chance to see them coming up.
Y'know, people eat day lilly blossoms/buds in salads...
spose that the deer gave them the idea?
