Still 5ยบ this am an snow nope not really...it is 51*F outside and cold, overcast and damp. And it is soon to ger much colder and rain. these crocus always come up early--they are on the east side of the house and are up against my house, and we have a full basement. Things usually come up early there, which after winter is a welcomed site.  Thursday will bring snow & ice---

I picked this little flower awhile ago, because it won't survive the low temps we are having tonight with snow and freezing rain tomorrow. Does anyone know what this is called? ![[Linked Image]](https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/47060_2917680957876_90719429_n.jpg)

I believe "iris" is in the name. It blooms early, before the crocus...and it's a tiny plant.

These are where my mom's house burned. I could dig up some bulbs and send to you when it's time. There's also some Grape Hyacinths that have taken over...they're not up yet, but they have little seeds and I collected a bunch last year...if you want them.

I think it is a "Dwarf Iris"...all the Dutch Irises I saw were tall...these are only about 3-4 inches tall with that big, pretty bloom on it. Looked just like the picture of the Dwarf Iris.

Yes I remember that was what you had said it was back in the day----I looked up the "botanical name" for you I thought that might be of more help.

Is it just me or does it take ages for daffodils to finally bloom once they bud. I've been waiting and waiting to see the first flowers but they just once make that final push.

no it's not jsut you--but I think it has a lot to do with the weather--it gets warm, it gets cold--& back & forth. The poor flowers don't know what to think or do. Well I think that of my flowers here in IL that is...
