Now, this is really CRAZY.

I couldn't believe my eyes, but there it was, waving and winking at me!! A SCAPE, now it is on a Stella, but this is a Stella in the ground, not even in a pot, which I expect will send up scapes first. It is on the East side of my house, getting all of that wonderful morning sun, and it has been in this location for many many years, but still!!! Here it is, it is small , but there it is!

And then I found the first bloom on my dwarf iris, and when I looked closer, I am seeing tons of buds!!!

It is a crazy time!! I checked my records, and this dwarf iris bloomed last year on April 20th! Now it is a full month early!

It is a crazy year, isn't it. I noticed a scape on daylily Dumortieri. It is always a very early daylily, blooming the last week of April. I've had blooms on several dwarf iris for about a week now, TB iris Daughter of Stars should bloom any day, & Kiss the Dawn bloomed today, a month earlier than it bloomed last year.

Super crazy for sure. I was walking by and noticed a scape a few days ago. Only on one but I will take it. Everything seems to be a good two to three weeks early. I love it though.

Wow!! Definitely early, but very cool! I thought maybe I'd get rebloom on a bunch of things since everything is ahead this year :)

I took a good thorough look today, and almost everything has a scape or two, some deep in the foliage still. At this rate, we'll all be nearly bloomed out by flower show time!
