Roberto, I think it's neat how some of your pics. in the last round show the stems coming out from the cracks in the dirt. Something very primordial about those two pics. . Like how that contrasts with the bright colors of the flowers.
I don't think the actual pancy plants survived the winter. Maybe grew from the seeds. I dunno for sure, ask the boss.

I didn't comment on my own , the boss told me and I just type it. The pancy are annuals , from seeds of course , but those ones somehow survived thru winter . Don't ask me how , but the mild winter in combination with recent warm temperatures may be the factor . Now we are back to seasonal temperatures , which the cocruses like , and the progress will take a slower pace.

Thanks . I am trying to get good pics and the older ones look terible. I still learn how to use the digital camera , don't laugh at me.
The pushing is happening all over , but is hard to get it right on pics . Looks something like these .....
 A white crocus pushing hard thru some muscari and daffodils.

Someone really needs to tell my garden that it's just barely April. In Minnesota.

The problem comes when all the plants think it's mid spring and then we get 2 nights in the 20s. I used up all my old dropcloths and sheets covering things. At least my cherry trees were slow to bloom so they are mostly undamaged. However, I heard most of Michigan lost its tart cherry crop and a number of local apple orchards had 90% destruction. Expect to pay more for fruit this year.
