The weather has been nasty here in Seattle all week,but today the snow has gone and the sun is out.

I was just doing walk abouts in my garden and noticed my spring bulbs are poking through..
YAY,spring is just around the corner..
LOL.Can you tell im excited?

well don't wish they come up too soon Von.. the snow is around the corner..... I've got HUGE buds on the rhododendrons, they will be fabulous in the spring, can't wait.... if the ice doesn't break them off.... that has happened before,,, we had an ice storm, and the sleet was so sharp that it sliced most of the buds off the rhodos... that was such a sad sight...(2 springs ago)

shame about the rodie,i have a few rodie bushes with big buds,hope that doesnt happen here.

I have planted hundreds of spring bulbs this fall,daffs,tulips,crocus,bluebells and another little blue flower i cant remember the name of.
