How is your yard looking (other than muddy)? My light-purple and dark-purple crocus are in bloom. The assortment of "daffodils for naturalizing" that I put in last autumn seem to be living up to their billing, with buds about ready to pop. The hellebores are doing great in their first spring here. I'm seeing some foliage from the tulips and grape hyacinths and the beginning of the monkshood and allium. It's even exciting to spot the first purple leaves of the anise hyssop, which in four months or so will be conspiring to take over the whole garden like it does every summer.
A house along Route 82 south of Willowdale has a beautiful Longwood-like display of thousands of light-purple crocus carpeting the whole front yard. A lovely, cheerful sight!
