Discussion»Questions»Home and Garden» Does anyone else have spring flowers in bloom already? Just noticed them today. Mid Feb definitely the earliest I have ever seen them.
If you count weeds as flowers I have - seen a dandy lion flowering already (thats very early). Also seen a few weeds that I call poper weeds flowering (pretty early for them too). Poper weeds are kind of neat they get a small white flower and when you put your hand anywhere near them they pop and shoot the seed a few feet away there is a bit of force to it too because if you get hit in the face with the seed it stings a little. Not sure what makes them pop - maybe they sense heat from the hand or it's a motion thing. Cheers and happy weekend!
Yes! I've seen daffodils bloomed here and there, trees are budding, and the news has warned of early tree pollen this week! Makes me happy...I hate winter!
You might be happy now, but the fruit farmers aren't. If their fruit start budding they be will killed off by a hard freeze. (which we will be getting.) Winter ain't over yet.
