    Not too much longer for the Daffodils. They popped up fast! Went from 3" tall to this in about 3 days o_O I think they're ready for winter to be over, and so am I!

    What a great start, Bip!
    Do they smell good to you? I like their smell, but some hyacinths smell weaker than others.

    Nothing is even out of the ground here. Those are a welcome sight.

    Oh Carolyn, My weather is so much like yours and I have gobs of green from bulb thingies along the foundation of the house out front.

    I will go out there in the morning and see how they are doing.

    The only thing I saw here, I accidentally dug it out and broke it off last week when I was moving the plants out of the way for the new gas line for the greenhouse. I have no idea what it was, but I am thinking it was a hyacinth.

    All my daffodils are out but there's no sign of my hyacinths yet. Mine usually don't appear until May. It's so good to see yours Jen.

    I love the scent of Hyacinths. I had a large clump at the old house near the road and I used to see the neighbor out there smelling them. My bulbs are only out about an inch so far, and we still have snow in parts of the gardens.

    On a warm day, they smell pretty. I need more to make a bigger scent! lol Want more tulips too. They're starting to shoot up now :)

    This winter makes me wonder what kind of summer we're in for o_O
