I went out to the yard today, the maintenance guy was out there and he put in new concrete splash pads for the water run off that comes out of the gutters...they look really nice now. I talked to him briefly and admired them, turned around and realized the yard was full of dandelions! They weren't there yesterday. But today, tiny little dandelions are blooming everywhere.
I guess with that slew of 50-60 degree days and cold nights, they got mixed up and decided it was spring. And it's supposed to snow on Friday!
Crazy, insane weather!

I haven't seen and dandelions for a long time. I think our over warm fall is about to end at least for awhile. We might squeak out a couple more warm afternoons here .but gonna start getting real chilly.

Looks like a cooler weekend. Next week, I think it's Tuesday or Wednesday, it is supposed to hit 60 for a day or two again. Crazy, yo-yo weather.

We have wild daisies, but here they bloom from late May to maybe the first week of July, then they are done. If we plant domestic ones, they will bloom most of the summer. But dandelions are the only sign of ''fake spring'' I have seen so far.

Do you remember our Mylotter who just couldn’t believe dandelions were considered weeds, and unwanted? Sure, people use them too, but for the most part they are pests, and she just wanted to argue about it since they weren’t found in her country.
It will be in the low 70s all week long here.

The dandelions will have a short life--by Thursday evening it will be below freezing again. My neighbor's lilac bush has buds on it! It's all mixed up, too!
