Many of my bulbs are four or five years inches tall and snowdrops are in white bud. The Algerian irises have been blooming a few weeks,

Tomorrow is going to be 18 degrees warmer than averages. We got one cold spell for a week. LOL. It's as if the dipped temps did a pre chill and now they think it's spring.

I was trying to ignore it but now after yet another few days of relatively warm weather my plants are also getting a little confused. My first snowdrop will be blooming tomorrow if it's another warm day... I'd blame the weather entirely but I have been planting earlier snowdrops over the years in the hope this would happen. ;) Last year I had to wait until February though.

Is Posie Rosie going to come out of hibernation soon ;-)

It's been ubersuper mild this year. Been watchin new green emerge past mulch lines here and there. My shrubs have been shedding their outer brown shells and green warm weather growth has been emerging from the side and terminal ends.

I just jinxed it now and watch old man winter come roaring in.

13F here tonight. The snowdrops have been covered and we will see when the covers come off again.

Heh. Here we were enjoying the El Nino effect
