Would be here.
Daffodils are starting to bloom in mid March, early but at least they can handle cold weather
You need a polustyren SP ? those for keeping things warm or cold and some blankets so you have a chance to keep it safe.

No news is good news? Still covered in snow here and can't tell what they're doing. Another 4-6" today.

I hope yours are OK.

Karma, maybe we have 'sprung' into Spring! We are finally getting some warm rain (which we need) and I have lots of Camellias blooming in my trees. and my ornamental cherry is in full bloom. It might cool a little, but I don't expect a freeze but then again, who knows, this is Oregon!! And the weather gurus said we might get some snow in the mountains, which we REALLY need. This week is Spring Break for all my great grand kids.
Lovin' the great northwest!

No day lilies yet Karma, but did find a few more hostas. Next week it's supposed to be in the mid 30's at night. Might be time to get the spare pots out.

Hay Rosemarie, was just thinking about you the other day and notice you hadn't posted for a while. Glad to hear all is well and
you are finally seeing signs of spring down south. We have had very few frosts so far this winter and no snow!! I can't get over
all that is budding and blooming. Hopefully more folks will share their gardens now that they are starting to grow.

Owen, the hostas here are just popping like crazy and the peonies are over a foot tall. I have a bud on the tree one
already and shoot coming up from the base. We are in the low 40s already at night, with last night the first 50. Still to
early to pull the ladies of the night out.
