The backyard felt very warm today, even at 45 degrees. The robins were all over, scratching, digging, and aerating the soil.

Some of their work.


In the perennial bed, daffodils and hyacinths are marching on.


It was very cold the past two nights, but the camellia didn't care.

And check out who survived the freezes.



Wallflowers seem to be immune to cold. Ox eye daisy has germinated. And the large, round seeds appear to be a type of hibiscus, but I can't say for sure since I didn't read the tag in the container. One day this week, I want to get out and sort the sprouts from the non sprouts. It'll make it easier to find them when it's time to plant out. I should have alphabetized them.
