Yanked out the first tomato plant of the 2023 garden. Wasn't producing much except a lot of blight covered leaves.

First sign of spring! I was in bad need of some outdoor therapy this morning and discovering that the snowdrops will soon be in full bloom made me smile.

Daffodil leaves just poking through by the driveway out front.

Now I have to go slog thru the mud to see if my snowdrops are coning up.

Now that the snow has mostly melted away, I saw the first day lily sprout poking up out of the leaf mulch, yesterday, and I didn't even have to poke around under the mulch to find it. Also can see some green parsley leaves and a couple of oregano ones too. Always a heartening time to see those first signs of spring.

So no snowdrops yet, but there is the first new growth on the Hellebore.

First crocus blooming at home today. They're ones that were planted by the original builder/owner more than 30 years ago, so I always enjoy seeing them return every year.

I noticed the daffodils on the bank above the road were blooming today. Hopefully the ones in the yard bloom soon.

First daffodils are blooming along with purple crocus still in bloom. Makes me smile!
First tiny flying insect (not sure what) buzzing around my eyes, mouth and nose. Makes me annoyed! (Really early)

My daffodils are all blooming, even thru the snow. I saw my first Tulip buds today. All the Tulips are covered in cages or fencing due to the bunnies thinking its a salad bar buffet.

On the way home from grocery shopping today, saw the first Skunk Cabbage poking up in the swamp next to the road enroute to home. (Every "first" of Springtime isn't always going to be a gorgeous one - lol!)
