We had an unusually mild winter here in western NC. Still, I doubt if anyone is complaining about the arrival of spring. Who could fail to be cheered by the abundance of flowers and flowering shrubs and trees? Daffodils have come (and almost gone!), tulips are up, dogwoods, redbuds, cherries, plums and other show trees are out, and forsythia, rose hawthorns, flowering quince and spirea are all making appearances, too.
For true spring beauty, we have to look no further than Vicki Bryson's wonderful yard. You're an inspiration, Vicki!
