Good sign! Posted by Fred SC on February 10, 2026, 6:01 pm Just a reminder that spring is around the corner . My neighbor has several Va blooming . I just threw in the phlox, as they bloom intermittently. https://i.ibb.co/WvyNmDxR/IMG-7259.jpg https://i.ibb.co/j9VPPxzb/IMG-7258.jpg https://i.ibb.co/n8q4QdcN/IMG-7261.jpg https://i.ibb.co/WWzbX3pS/IMG-7262.jpg

A common rule of thumb is that spring moves north at an average rate of approximately 13 miles a day Posted by Rob N TN on February 11, 2026, 1:03 am, in reply to "Good sign!" Nice and early blooms Fred, thanks for sharing. It is heading north Buttercups are blooming here (Ranunculus)
