I'm sprouting green with envy LOL

You bet. I'm seeing growth on tulip poplars, hydrangea, blueberries, and even figs in Wake County. I'll have to figure out something if we get a frost. I don't have any old bedsheets.

In a new property, I'm discovering cherry trees,a serviceberry tree,scads of azaleas, hollies,tons of rose of sharon of all sizes,what I think is a bed of agapanthus,iris,clematis,narcissus,rhododendrons and saucer magnolia.
Azaleas are now blooming,narcissus all done,forsythia blooms peek between the spring green leaves(heat). Cherries are blooming nicely alongside the serviceberry tree.
When it comes dogwood time this yard promises to be covered in white blooms over red and pink mature azaleas.
Lawn still isn't greening up yet but covered with purple weed flowers,yellow weed flowers and those darn violets all over.
At least it's colorful.
The ajuga beds aren't budded up yet but they will soon.

After damp nights and sunny days I'm seeing plenty of flower buds and new leaves. In the veggie garden all the peas are up - as are the sweet peas (which are poisonous by the way, but mine always bloom after the edible peas die from the heat). The first of the rhubarbs has got its nose above ground along with rows of radishes.

The highlights in the flower garden are the lilacs which after many many years have finally emerged covered in buds. These are the solid white kind, I dug these up from my parents yard in Oklahoma before we sold the house. I was about to give up completely but someone told me to change the soil ph to alkaline which seems to have done the trick. I'm happy see the large redbud tree covered with flower buds, they are notorious for being hard to transplant but I just couldn't leave it at the old house. It lived for one year in a pot before finally getting planted. It seems to be handling the transition just fine.

For the first time ever the loquat tree is making fruit! whether these will fill out and avoid being eaten by squirrels remains to be seen.

Last year I planted an olive tree that had just gotten too big to overwinter inside anymore. Due to the mild weather this winter it has survived and is covered with flower buds. It made ONE olive way back when I first bought it as a tiny twig of a tree, hopefully this year will be different.
