Hi Jill,
Wish I could say as many as you have at this time! Though here in the N.E (along near coast line)- in my yard, I have Crocus,
Snowdrops,Helleborus(Lenten rose),mini Daffodils and Primrose in bloom!
Right now, (East Texas) I have 3 different colors of petunias, and one snapdragon blooming.
This will be the third year in a row for this one snapdragon.. tough plant, considering the last
2 winters we’ve had here.
Lots of blooming trees, Bradford pear, Yoshino cherry, wild plum, redbud, and the daffodils, snowdrops, pansies!
My flowers are in central SC.
In central Alabama, we have forsythia, hyacinth, daffodils, tulips, azaleas, pansies, violets, sweet olive, tulip trees, blueberry bushes and a wren’s nest with eggs. The redbuds, cherries and other trees are starting to leaf out.
Spirea, Bradford pear, chinese dogwood, in the yard, and of course, milkweed in pots still flowering from last year, in N Central Florida.
i am in Wisconsin..not much ‘blooming’ here yet, although we are having an exceptionally warm spring. i separated and replanted some sedums last fall,and believe it or not, they are coming up already!!! about a week or so ago. I was so surprised, hope it doesn’t get too cold now!!
Believe it not, on March 12th in upper SC, I have Iris blooming! Never saw them bloom this early. I also have tulip tree blooms, red bud tree, carolina jasmine, Chinese fringe, yellow belles, daffodils, winter dafnee, coral honeysuckle (budding). The garlic is almost 3′ high and the onions are growing well.
Our first Daffodils just pooped out today! Yesterday was all about the 100′s of mini crocus we have planted.
We are located in Elmore Ohio. I have a picture if you would like to see. We have a 17 acre garden estate for guests to come visit.
In coastal SC we have Bradford pears, redbuds, jonquils, pansies, and early azaleas, and a lot of yellow pine tree pollen.
So far we only have a few of our mamilaria cactus. Such pretty blossoms tho.
In the Western NC mountains (Swannanoa), I have Helleborus, hyacinths, daffodils, snowdrift, and my pulmonaria is getting ready to bloom.
It is our dry season here in the Caribbean and there is a riot of colour around. Many plants are vying for attention especially the Bougainvillas.
South Central Pa. I have hellebores, daffodils, pulmonaria, primrose, anemone blanda, zizia, crocus,forsythia,witchhazel,chionodoxa,and a few aconites and snowdrops still hanging in there. Camelias not quite ready. It’s a great spring.
My yard has a lot of greenery that has popped up but not a lot blooming yet. Right now I have Blue Scabiosa (has bloomed year round) Hycinths, purple Pansies, and my red Tulips started blooming today. My Appalacian Red Bud tree is just now bursting forth and should be in full bloom in about a week. It usually blooms later than the Eastern Redbuds in our area (Northwest Arkansas).
