Spring marches on... though highs just in the 40's today doesn't sound very springy to me.
If you gaze outside from the window, still looks solidly like winter.
But if you get outside and scout around on the ground, things are definitely popping.
#1 is the double hepatica I showed above, 1 week more developed.
A beauty, if I don't say so myself.
#2 is obviously a crocus, though I don't ever recall planting crocus. I guess a volunteer.
#3 is one of the generic reseeding hellebores which are blooming throughout my woods.
I have no idea which one, just reseeds itself around.
#4 is a hellebore called 'party girl', I think.
#5 is a corydalis just getting started
Aspen, have you got that camera going yet? Let's see the pix!
