    Just thought I would start a thread where we could all show our flowers as they start blooming and where they are.
    I'll start...

    We have had it drop below freezing the end of April before, got down to 28° one year...we have some huge peach farms a bit south of us...the really scramble when that happens, wiped out the crop year before last...South Carolina has some huge peach orchards too. We have 2 red plum trees in our yard that are blooming now.

    Thats not a flower! Thats a weed!
    :p

    A pretty weed though.:handshake:

    Mom had a wisteria (bush) in here yard. She loved it. Had pretty flowers.
    I think the stump was at least 6-7 inches.

    We used to go to Summerville sc for the azaleafest. I think maybe they called it The Flowertown festival.
    Good times.

    FIFY

    Best word for it

    Mama has a bush too, unfortunately, years ago, it went exploring and liked what it found, along with some bamboo my dad planted for fishing poles...
    We need a panda bear that eats both...

    damm flowers just tease us with tiny tiny pop ups a few inches over the snow.
    Now 40-60 mph southerly gusts with heavy rain washing the snow.
    No Spring yet.
