Very nice, I think I'm a bit jealous. We got another 2 inches of snow on the weekend. :( And here I thought it was warming and I'd be able to do something soon.

Here are my first few crocuses. They are hard to see and I apologize for that. I'm definitely not a photographer.

I will ask Bill what that is....it's some kind of early weird iris with a name I can't remember. It's tiny like a crocus. If you want some I will send you some seeds...it multiplies from it's seeds every year as well as the plant getting stronger and bigger. I got it out of my old yard.

If you have a couple of extra seeds I'd like to try and grow them here. I could put them in front of my regular irises. Thanks for offering to share. I just need a few. I've got just about all the beds I can handle already in the garden. Can you believe that? I have a hard time believing that. It's only the beginning of the third growing season since I moved in.

Bill said it is Dutch Iris. They are teeny tiny...like the size of a crocus.
I will get some for both of you...but they won't bloom again til next year.

My crocus' aren't up yet. Though I think I saw aomething green trying to poke out of the garden near the house in a very sheltered spot, not sure what yet, but maybe as it warms to above freezing this weekend I'll get a look and see what it was.

Thanks cindy. I'm patient too. This gives me time to make a place for them. Maybe I won't even have to move them one hundred times lol. I'm so not a designer.
I've hear that some of them will even poke there noses out with snow still on the ground. I'll cross my fingers for you.
