    Default Anything blooming yet?

    I'm so ready for spring to get here. I just noticed today that my jonquils are blooming. Just wondering, do you have anything blooming yet?

    No signs of spring or flowers yet. As per the weather forecast online, the weather outside is -10 degrees C (or 14 degrees F), but feels like -19 degrees C (or -2.2 degrees F). Cold, eh? No wonder there is no blooming are here!

    I just planted into pots today some snapdragons, light pink, dark pink,
    purple, yellow and white. They are so pretty.

    I know it probably does not count as I am not in the cold frigid north.

    Nothing here yet. Our weather was -37C and -32C the last couple of days. Today it's -10C. Still way too cold for anything to bloom. That won't be for a couple months yet.

    Nothing here, sadly. We just got rid of all of the snow accumulation only to have 12" dumped on us in the last 24 hours.

    Spring can't come soon enough!

    Holy pollen Batman! It's blooming in Florida! I'm planting a small garden this week (working full time - hard to keep up with) and going for a walk in the woods on a wild herb and edible plant walk. It's easier to identify what's flowering.

    daffodils, crocuses, mock orange, forsythia, peach tree are all in bloom. Wild pears look like they are next and maybe dogwoods. Nine more days until spring! Just hope we don't get a late freeze, seems like the fruit trees are blooming a bit early this year.
