I'm sure that has some effect. And Denver while at the same latitude that I am is almost 5000' higher. That's gotta have a big effect, too. I know my father-in-law is only about an hour's drive south of here (1 degree of latitude) and his neighborhood is always at least a week or two ahead of ours as far as the growing season goes. And then you put in lake effects and all kinds of microclimates and who knows how any of it works. For example, Kris gets crocus much sooner than I do.<br /><br />But however it works, the emergence of spring at whatever pace is all good.Live and Learnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13493777474885053903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6315851262843522940.post-68436427206164807682016-05-05T15:40:29.713-04:002016-05-05T15:40:29.713-04:00The flowers are beautiful, but the raindrops photo...The flowers are beautiful, but the raindrops photo is my favorite.

When I was driving around yesterday I noticed the beginnings of Queen Ann's Lace on the roadside so I guess we are at the beginnings of summertime blooms.Anne in the kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01533249631969001657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6315851262843522940.post-48798646419918702802016-05-05T10:58:04.157-04:002016-05-05T10:58:04.157-04:00I know I say this a lot--but I can't believe h...I know I say this a lot--but I can't believe how far ahead of us your plants are!
