Spring bloom in Kansas City

Dear Friends,

I think it was still just about a week ago that we had snow on the ground and temps below freezing, but suddenly things have warmed up and what a change. The last couple days have been in the mid 60s and 70 F.

So far I think the following are in bloom -

Galanthus - various sp and cv.
Crocus tommasinianus
C. sieberi ‘Firefly’
C. sieberi ‘Bowles White’
Crocus ancyrensis
Adonis amurensis
Eranthis hyemalis - lots of these.
Scilla mischtschenkoana
Narcissus ‘Rijnveld’s Early Sensation’

and there might be one or two others. Probably a few Hellebores have popped open and more things are appearing daily.

Spring is here. Best Jim W.
