And what is up with our gardens surprising us all by bursting into bloom suddenly? It's happening here, too... I come home and find that another type of tulip, or the bergennia, or whatever, are blooming like they're at the end of their bloom time. And I didn't even know they were in bud. Wild. <em>Kim, Spring (especially maybe this one) makes me a little crazy because so much happens so fast and I don't want to miss a single second. I get all upset when I miss seeing a bud or a bloom this time of year! -kris</em> I love that picture of the Kentucky yellowwood tree–very pretty and artistic.

I really wish I could get out there to see the daffodils in person, but with the price of gas right now...it would be an expensive visit. <em>Heather, it's true - gas prices are probably going to keep us all close to home. And it sounds like those $$ will be well spent in your new garden! -kris</em> I’m loving watching my first fern fiddleheads emerge and spending all my free time plotting for a new perennial flower bed — my first attempt.

Because the weather was so cold in February, March & the beginning of April, things that normally bloom at different times are all blooming together. <em>It's so warm here now, I think I'm getting whiplash from trying to see spring unfold at lightning speed! -kris</em> I can’t keep up with all the things that are going on in the garden at once.
