Spring is coming

Another spell of warm weather always reminds me that, here, in the Southern U.S., spring comes early.

February often brings lovely bright days -- we've have a row of them -- with temperatures up in the mid 60°'s F.  Balmy, really.

So spring is just around the corner.  Even the native plants are starting to show signs of buds swelling.

Our Carolina Jessamine has flower buds close to opening.  It's a good sign.
