Nothing in my little gardens, but most of them surround a parking lot and narrow driveway, used by 8 families. Really took a beating this winter. A lot of my perennials don't survive each winter...and boundry-less neighborhood kids.

I recommend something with thorns.

saw some daff foliage in the garden today

I did, too. Most daff's are up about 3 or 4" and crocuses have begun to grow.

If they are up here, they are invisible under snow.

That must be the case here, Lucy!

This was yesterday


This is today

Oh Ronnie! I like the first view and it is the pits about the second. Unfortunately it is about the same here. Snow really coming down. Yuck! The first day of spring seems like mid winter.

Luckily we got the last of the fall clean up done before this mess...I saw so much green now all I see is white

All of you south of us are getting the snow. We are just supposed to have a dusting. Fine as we have to drive to our iris meeting.

Loved the photo of the crocus.....no gardens are visible yet in my yard.......the difference between today & Jan. 21st was that on Jan. 21st we had NO snow!

My behind the house gardens are still covered Marilyn. I can really only get to one or two in front of the house.
Very frustrating I must say. Grey and damp here today so I will watch movies.

It has been snowing most of the morning. Perhaps will only have a couple inches but visability while driving will be badd, so I think we will be staying home.

Good idea

It's improved so much in the last hour that I bet you can make the meeting tomorrow, Lucy.

Snow stopped about 12:30 so went on to the meeting. It is about an hour's drive. Saw photos of iris seedlings belonging to Paul Black. The colors are fantastic.

Tall, medium, or dwarf, Lucy?

The show started with TBs & then the SDBs. Paul knows our prefrences. There were even some Siberian slides. He was able to see those at Joe Pye Weed a few years ago & started his own series. some nice plants, but you can tell he is at the beginnings of those.

woohoo guys, spring is around the corner, can anyone else feel it? My crocuses are coming up, my daffodils are peaking their head out of the ground, same with my tulips. And my sure sign of spring, the skunk cabbage is melting the snow all around him.
