Until this week , lots of rain, thunderstorms and lightning.
Grass is still brown and trees reluctant to bud out.
There are only a few signs of spring in the garden.
With the rain which I am so grateful for, can already see the grass greening up.
Crocus are happily flowering... even in the rain..... Sedum is starting to peek out of the ground.

| see the sedum just peeking thru? |

| tulips just need a few days of sun and warm to burst into bloom |
Purchased a pot of pansies, violas, purple alyssum and diascia.
All of these plants are cold tolerant and will survive a light frost ,which is a good thing this area is under a winter storm watch for the next 2 days......

| Placed the pot on the porch table to brighten the front door area. |
Any signs of spring in your garden?

Little signs of spring are starting to show-daffodils and tiny buds on the trees. I bought some pansies to brighten the front porch too.
Have a good week.

Very pretty, love pansies!
My garden is even slower than yours is Rosemary. The grass is still brown and I have a few snowdrops. That's it! I don't even have the odd crocus. At least there is no snow...so far anyway. Like you I was so desperate for a little color that I went out and bought a few pansies. Love the orange colored ones with the purples.
Those pansies are very pretty. We finally received some much needed rain here, I'm hoping for more soon. I hate having to water in April, it just seems so wrong.
