Remember my wintersweet? I transplanted it earlier in the week and when I looked at it this morning I noticed that its secondary leaves were no longer just a nub. I don’t know if it was the transplanting or if it was a coincidence, but I’m delighted!

There’s a maple tree outside my office window and I enjoy watching its maroon buds swell as winter turns to spring. I was delighted today to see the buds are now tiny yellow flowers. Aaaachoo!

I talked about springsigns earlier, but today noticed the daffodils were popping out. I harvested a few for the kitchen.
Daffodils! Now there’s a happy shade of yellow. I am so looking forward to my first in-person daffodil sighting of 2021.

All that new growth reminds me that the opposite is happening here. Mind you, that in its own way is delightful too.

Both spring and fall often take me by surprise.
