The weather really warmed up here over the last few days. All the snow and ice that we got a week and a half ago is pretty much gone!

The moisture must have done the grass and the garden beds some good. The grass doesn’t have that worn out dormant look. It actually looks pretty green. I guess that’s because we only had really cold weather here this winter for a month and a half rather than three or four months like we normally do.

From my kitchen window I can see small patches of green poking up in the garden beds. One of the sedum has new growth starting, and there’s definitely some chives coming up. Near the chives I see another patch of green but I can’t remember what I’ve got planted there. I’m wondering if it’s some bulbs coming up?

I’ll have to take a walk outside tomorrow and see what else is happening in the garden.

It’s a shame that these plants are coming up and that the snow has melted. You see, we are expecting at least one more round of fairly cold weather in the next few days. I hope it doesn’t damage the foolish plants that decided to begin to grow so early.

Have any of you noticed signs of your plants beginning to grow again in your gardens?
