unseasonalbly warm...

These were already blooming last week!

budding in the sun...

Even though it's freakin' cold, the Squill are starting to bud!

look what what hiding under the snow...

This photo was taken this morning at around 11:30am.  At 6pm, it started snowing again.  I'm thinking that this year we've had record snow fall.

say it with pictures...

I think this garden blog is going to have mostly pictures :) I mean, there's not much else to say other than what I can show you in a photo.

Top two are Siberian Squill (I love that they are blue!) and the bottom of course is (giant) Crocus.

Squill are like Bluebell, only they come out sooner are are a deeper blue. Squill are supposed to spread like mad.

crocus, tulips and squill - oh my!

Today doing the ritual walk around I noticed one tulip head! This should NOT be. I think it's really going to be a retarded tulip (I know from last year that we have many).

There are already squill starting to show thier heads...and many at that.

(This photo is from 3 30 2008. This years Squill look like this today - 10 days earlier!)

Crocuses under the front bushes are all purpley and just about to bloom. I really hope the rabbits don't get to them before I can see just how beautiful they can be.
(This is how my crocuses looked last year after the dreaded bunnies!!!)
