Crocus, species (including tommies) and Darwins, are in bloom, along
with tiny reticulata iris, chionodoxa, scilla, and tete-a-tete
mini-daffs. Snowdrops are finishing and so are the few winter aconite
that came through from last year's hot and dry summer. Nonbulbs: many
lovely yellow blooms on the adonis in the scree bed and bloodroot in the
fern bed, along with corydalis speciosa. Buds on shrubs greening up and
swelling like crazy. Magnolias starting to show color all over town. But
now it's cooling down again and they are saying low twenties by Sunday
night. Gardening 03 ... whoopee! Here we go ...
