Heere in southern NH, forsythia is in full bloom. My neighbor's ornamental cherry is blooming, but my fruit variety isn't quite there yet. Other neighbors have native rhodora and star magnolia blooming. The first flowers - snowdrops, tiny iris, and crocus - have set seed. Scillas, pushkinias and first daffodils are tattered. Second wave of daffodils and first tulips are open. We're having a lovely slow spring with showers enough to keep things coming, but the lilacs and apple flowers are safely tightly budded. If you'd just mention a general area where you garden, folks, this might be more fun.
