I'm quite sure that almost everyone has at least leaves by now, if not blooms! I'm lucky that I have green on my canes right now, considering we're supposed to get another 2-4" of snow tomorrow!
I got in a Michigan Bulb catalog in yesterday's mail. I haven't ordered from them in years, but they still keep sending me catalogs. So I just rummage through it, creating a wishlist that I'll order from some place else or see if I can find locally. Found 3 roses that I just HAD to have!

Then you actually *read* the listing and come to find out that... well, none of these are what Michigan Bulb are labeling them as! "Blue Satin" is actually Blue Girl, which I have a number of; Dark Dragon is just Purple Tiger, which I have as well & doesn't look half as dark as their picture; and Shamrock is just St. Patrick, which is yellow here in CO and never ever ever shows green.
False advertisements?
Oh well, so here's a Picante to brighten everyone's day!
