[peter hillman]

We're getting a second chance at spring. 70's - 80's last week, snow and frost this week.

 

[adavisus]

ouch, not much spring in between 32f-80's, that was here a week ago, scorched the spider lily, a tad

 

[sissy]

worked out side until the sun got on the last project I was repairing .I am sure not getting heat stroke out there in that sun

 

[mrtrumpet]

Fairly normal kind of spring here. Comes in slowly, lasts about a month and is spectacular! 70's this week and 80's next. Love it! Koi are very happy too!

 

[sissy]

[sissy]

Well I think spring is back chilly and rainy here .

 

[CometKeith]

Sissy, I thought you meant winter was coming back! High of 47 degrees, overcast and rainy today

 

[sissy]

how true as we have had heavy rain and they are saying it will continue until the end of the week .All we need for it to be winter is snow .The S word ,only 55 here and it is almost noon time and rain makes it feel colder

 

[adavisus]

The wee beasty, the Gorgon plant, awakes

 

[sissy]

8 banana babies just found new homes .Seems this rain is making more come up .I dug up 3 more and thinking I may have to dig up more .King Arthur also laid ontop of 2 in the back yard that were just coming up

We've been on a weather roller coaster since March. I think El Nino is fading, which means the warm winter we had in Chicago gave way to the usual up-and-down weather we have during the spring. A few weeks ago we hit 85 degrees one day, and by the next day it was back in the 40s with ice-cold rain and that dampness that just goes right through your body. The daffodils seemed to come up a little earlier than usual, as did a few of the other perennials...but the tulips grew on schedule, as did most of the other plants, including the shrubs I call the Mother's Day shrubs as they are usually in full purple-y bloom on this weekend.

Spring is baaaack, temps 20f below norm, dull and showery, does not seem to have bothered the water hyacinth.

The 10 new offsets started a month ago on a 4' pond are now 104 plants and need to be thinned out...

 

[adavisus]

With temps all set to bounce back from unusually cool, lets get some of the tropical waterlily tubers started, ahah!

This single tuber with a single sprout should be ideal to start a flowering position for Antares night bloom tropical waterlily

20% rain yesterday and we got 4 rain storms 80% today and looks like rain again .Then the rest of the week in the 90's .Is it spring or summer or is it the whatever season it's SPRUMMER
