My tulips have come in the last 10 days...unfortunately they have been greeted by two hailstorms, freezing rain, and snow this evening.
We've darn near had a flash flood here over the last few days, the blooms on my azaleas are washed away and my tulips are limped over. Even some of the trees that were leafing out now look rough.
time to get rid of the left over leaves from last Fall--lots of work coming up :-(
That's what I've been doing. And I got a terrible case of poison ivy on my forearm last week, the vines are still brown and I couldn't tell if I was into poison ivy or weeds. I had long sleeves and gloves on, but I still got it bad. I will be so happy when everything is green!

ouch!! I better watch out - there is one area where that nasty plant started to invade my garden/lawn last year... appreciate your sharing that!

Elke, are you in Huntington NY? If so, I have a mystery for you.
I was up there around March 15. The daffs were barely pushing through in most of the yards, except around the pond near a motel called The Chalet. There, several were in full bloom! These did not look planted (it's kind of an abandoned spot, I believe there used to be a chinese resaurant there but all you see now are the building's foundation).
Any thoughts? Something magical about being in a spot where chinese food was once cooked, maybe?

Hi Normie, yes I'm in Huntington NY
I remember the name "The Chalet", but at the moment I can't place the location. Will try to ask around if anyone remembers and will check it out!
Thanks for the "mystery" - love solving them
It may just be a "warm spot"
