	Yep, winter is definitely winding down here also. Had to work late  
Friday and got home just before dark, there were two forms of I.  
reticulata open. A dozen flowers today and record high temps  
forecasted this week so there will be many more open soon. A third  
species of crocus also began blooming today. Now I need to get  
serious about garden clean-up so you won't see all the dead weeds  
when I start sending photos to the group.

	A few I. magnificas were burnt by the blast of cold last week and  
may not flower, may not recover at all. Others just now erupting from  
their slumber. We sure could use some moisture, the ground is very  
dry, dusty in spots.
