| Fourth Snowfall |
After we had some melting, we had two more snowfalls. But now it is meteorological spring, and weather forecasts promise days in the 70's starting in two days. It has been so gray here for so long, I can't wait for some warmth and sun.

Daffodils are finally peeking through the ground after the fifth snowfall. This area doesn't get a lot of sun. This pile of ice-covered snow that is still lingering in March (!) is from the snow storm that occurred January 24th that crippled the east coast.

We had one warm day with sun last weekend, so I tried to uncover all the bulbs in the yard that were trying to grow through the fall plants that I left as groundcover for the winter.

I finally got out in the backyard when all the snow was gone last weekend to look under the large trees, and it looks like all the hellebore plants were just starting to bloom. I'll have to clear away all the dead leaves so that their beauty can be seen. They can last till June.
