    Went for a walk around the yard this morning to see if anything was starting to grow yet. I came across these.

    Even though we have had a really mild winter this is a good month to 1 1/2 months early. The dafs don't usually appear until the end of March or mid April, not the 27th of Feb. ! But hey I'm not complaining. Also found several lilly coming up and the shrubs we planted last year at the front deck, all have leaf buds on them! :)

    I'm not complaining either as my own daffs are about ready to burst into bloom too.

    For now, I'll watch your daffs Captain as ours are still asleep under a few inches of white fertilizer.

    Hooray for your early Daffodils! They are such a cheerful sign of spring. Mine aren't that big yet, patiently waiting...
