This sure is a neat thread: I get to know weather across Canada just by going through it. Here in Montreal, we get a nice sunny day with a high of 4 (low of minus 8). For us here, this is a nice day !

The snow is still there, but is is melting. The sun rays are more intense, Blue Butterfly bush (Clerodendron ugandese) is budding, Bougainvillea and Clerondendron thomsonnaie is blooming.

Finally, I can start using the 3-season greenhouse (the 3 seasons last only 6 months because Quebec's long winter takes up the other 6 months!).

I am leaving for La Romana, Repulic Dominica this Friday. Anyone wants rum, cigar, or flower seeds there ?
