Spring has sprung… I think?

Temperatures have been in the 70s for several days and so many plants are blooming from daffodils to Asian magnolias!

Warm and flowery!

The weather has warmed so rapidly in the past few weeks. Typically our last hard frost is in the second week of March with light as late as the first week of April.

Japanese winter flowering apricots are blooming. (Prunus mume ‘Peggy Clarke”) with its spicy fragrance

Daffodils are emerging!

And witch hazel Jelena has been blooming for weeks! (Hamamelis x intermedia ‘Jelena‘)

And a visit to Sarah O Duke Gardens

Time to plan the veggie garden!!!
