Spring in the middle of winter

The weather has been like a roller coaster here, with temperatures ranging from the 20s to the 60s and then a 78 degree day forecast for next week. I’ve been keeping an eye on our daffodils out front, and yesterday they bloomed. The tulips are all up, and the crocuses bloomed but aren’t open due to the lack of almost any sunlight.

I've only ever seen daffodils in February in the grocery store. Strange times indeed and a lovely shot of the early color.

It's always good to see the Spring flowers. Ours are just starting to pop up. V

I'm with Jane on this...

My fear is we are going to have a cold March and all the Spring flowers will be gone. Seems so early to start seeing daffodils. V

Can hardly wait for that around here. Hopefully there it won't suddenly get cold.

Crazy! Ours have started to pop up, but only about a half an inch.

That is gorgeous and so telling of inconsistent weather!

Weird weather continues, but I hope your bulbs survive well. This is such a pretty springlike photo. V
