Monday - February 14, 2005 at 05:24 PM inFlowers on Valentine's DayFlowers on Valentine's Day are not unusual. In
Minnesota, however, it is unusual for the flowers to be sprouting from the
ground.
No joke. Yesterday, February 13th, I spotted the
first daffodil shoots of the season. There's a sheltered spot by the south wall
of our house where the shoots always come up first. Usually in April, sometimes
in late March if we've had a mild winter. But never in
February.
Then last night we got a couple inches of sticky, wet snow. Buried those brave little shoots for a few hours until the 45-degree sunshine melted all the snow again. Right now, the forecast is for a few colder days. The daffodils may regret their premature sprouting. Posted at 05:24 PM | Permalink | | | |
