I will get some species next year also the tulips. I did not get many bulbs this year because I had so much other stuff to plant like daylilies. I haven't had crocus in ages! LOL.

My crocus had died out around here from all my garden redos and putting in new garden beds. Last fall I put in thousands and thousands of crocus, they fall before not that many. But now I do have a lot of crocus around. I might put in some more this fall of I have the energy.

Not really. We had a dusting on the grassy areas but nothing on the roads or walkways or driveway. It has totally melted off by now and starting to dry up. It is getting lighter and it really wants to dry out.

The radio forecaster said we'll have sunshine by 5 PM. That's for the city, not us out here at the end of the world.

I am sunny at 60°! Very nice day except for the wind gusting to 26 mph. I was looking at the weather and they have predicted a blizzard for the Dakotas and Minnesota. Up to a foot and a half of snow for some places, jeepers just when we thought this was all going to clear up. LOL.

@NJBob sorry to hear about the ice!

Pretty, Rita.

I have only a few spring bulbs, but my crocus are blooming, too.

It was nice here today for opening day. 70° and sunny now.

Do not listen to them! They are trying to upset us and they can't be gardeners to tell us such dreadful things.

Yikes!! The winter that would not end. LOL. Stay safe Bob, especially if there is ice.
