I'm inclined to believe this rhyme, but let's not forget the beautiful warm weather that we had for 5 whole days. With sunshine, warm temps, and a little rain each day, my bulbs and perennials are popping up everywhere. The biggest change, though, had to be my magnolia. When I left home in the morning yesterday a few of the upper blossoms had opened. When I came back 3 hours later, even more were open. This morning, the whole tree is in bloom and smells heavenly. Little, bitty pollinators are buzzing from flower to flower to make the tree healthy and overall: it smells and feels like Spring.Note: my magnolia was in full bloom last year on March 19 so we're a full 5 weeks later this year than last year's incredibly early Spring.
