Extremely Early Signs of Spring

Helen January 30, 2011 2 Comments

Mild weather has coaxed out some very early buds along with a handful of intrepid creatures.  Welcome back! Thank you, readers, if you can identify these brave plants.

By the United Methodist Church on Bagley and 42nd.

The very rare giant “Purplefly”.

Reddish buds.

Plywoodasaurus Rex.

Actual flowers, yet.  Pink ones, at that.

    Not entirely unusual. Plenty of varieties bloom in “late winter” as opposed to spring. Look for crocus and primroses in 2-3 weeks as well. Certainly welcome!
