My daffodils are finally poking up through the ground...
(Daffodils)
and the tulip foliage is up...(what few the squirrels haven't eaten yet)
as are my hyacinths...
(Hyacinths)
(hmm...somebody or something has been munching on this one)
I'm hoping the hyacinth bulbs in my garden will (soon) resemble my indoor forced bulbs:
My crocuses and muscari are showing their foliage...

My next door neighbor's daffodils are many inches taller than mine, (probably due to differences in micro climates as well as daffodil variety).
and their crocuses are already blooming!
This time last year my forsythia looked like this
...but only now are they showing their buds this year.
On Saturday, I bought some giant pansies
and a few more daffodils, tulips and hyacinths, which are just partially through the soil.

Yesterday I planted the pansies in the front yard (in the ground and in pots)...
And now, everything is in--tulips, daffs, and hyacinths:
My hellebores are budding and I'm looking forward to seeing a few blooms in the near future:
Daffodil Planter is having a Blogorama featuring, what else? Daffodils! Take a look if you haven't already!
Today I am thankful for the buds and bulbs popping up all over my yard;-)
