I’ve heard that Spring is two weeks ahead of schedule this year, fingers crossed this is true.....it has been a long winter here in upstate NY.  Hardly any snow but gray, gray, gray days.  I would rather have snow and cold.

We are ahead too, Les.  This year my Witchhazel started blooming on 2/5.  Last year it was 3/13.
