SS--I just want to say that each of the photos you posted above is like a poster.
such a beautiful composition and colors. Mother nature IS an artist!
You could blow these up and frame them--call it your "Spring Series"

I would need to go outside with a lens in hand to find anything blooming....
I know my hellebores have buds--but they are still hunkered down near the soil.

I have seen Daffs up about 3" or 4"--seems a bit too soon.....just b/c of the weather...

Terri--You have a Stinking iris?????? Now i am not the only one!
Mine has been hiding behind my bird bath for years! I just 'discovered" what it was
in 2012--b/c I saw all these bright red seeds in and out of the pods...

Green thumb asked for some seeds--but i also dug up s clump and separated it into
3 pots and will take it to him this weekend.
Yes! The bloom id nondescript!

If indoor spring flowers count--my Clivia is blooming away--and the other one has
two bloom stalks ready to pop. Will have to go outside and check to see if anything
else is worth noting....
