Monday - February 14, 2005 at 05:24 PM inFlowers on Valentine's Day
Flowers 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 | | | |
