Daffys, finally blooming ( photo / image / picture from Kay's Garden )

I was so thrilled to finally see some pretty yellow daffodils in bloom! I have been waiting so long. There are a lot of Crocus and Daffs that have not bloomed yet, but I have a feeling it won't be long. We have had some nice warm weather here and its certainly a welcome change. March was a chilly, wet and windy month, but it truly is "going out like a lamb".
I am also back to work, and we are busy! It is so good to see plants coming out of dormancy. I feel like I come out of dormancy too!
Right now we are cutting away the old dead plant material and cleaning up leaves and debris and then dressing up with new layers of fresh mulch. I love seeing our customer's properties when we complete the work, and it looks so nice for them.
So far, I haven't seen too much winter kill, but some of it may not be apparent yet. The boxwoods sure have a lot of winter burn, poor things.
So, I am switching gears, got out my water jug and lunch cooler, tools, sunscreen, hat, gloves, boots, grubby jeans... Putting away the puzzles and books, well maybe not :)
Gotta go to bed earlier, up and out earlier!
Hurray for spring!!
