And what part of the country do you live in MDK?
It is going to be a long time before I can even think of planting anything around here. There is still a couple of feet of snow on the ground. It was a LOT of work shoveling off my patio and getting my grill out. It took me several hours. Lol. My arms were sore too!
I am from Western PA. The snow is present but it is melting swiftly but lord knows how long that will last. March is a very fickle month. I've gone to great lengths to improve the soil quality of my property so the bulbs tend to sprout a little earlier and my yield tends to be higher now as result. My tulips got waist high last year on me, but to be fair I am only 5"8. lol.
It's melting pretty fast here too, considering. I imagine we will still have snow on the ground into next month though, at least in the shady areas in the woods and stuff.
It was a little above 40 degrees here yesterday and it was like summer. I did my morning run in shorts.
Watch out for falling icicles!
No joke. The icicles on the wires and telephones poles can be very dangerous; however, my biggest concern is drivers distracted by texting or talking on their damn phone. I almost got hit last week by some tart not paying attention. She looked at me I like I was at fault but I just shook my head and kept on hitting the pavement. What a jackass! lol.
Yeah, when I was out back shoveling my patio, snow and icicles kept falling off the windows and roof. Scared me half to death a couple of times! Lol.
