4/22/20 – For about two weeks now I’ve been anxiously watching a small patch of ground behind the house waiting for something to happen. Yesterday I finally found what I had been impatiently waiting for, a handful of crocus’ poking through the soil in one of the few areas not covered in an abundance of snow. These plants are tough as nails. They’re currently enduring 28⁰ F and they’ll be lucky if they see 33⁰ F today. -Jessica
