    Yeah, I posted that daffodil and guess what? It's snowing tonight! Expected accumulation of 3 - 6 inches! This has been a very wet & cold Winter for us in West Texas. I'm tired of it. I dislike Winter.

    Same thing here in SE Texas... well... not quite as bad... they're only predicting about 1/2 inch of snow.

    Well my daffs are growing well (5-6" above the ground) but aren't ready to flower just yet. However, we've just had around 8" of snow so I can't even see them any more. :(
