February 13: The daffodils usually start appearing in late-January and early-February. This year was no exception.

February 13: A number of blooms were ready to go.

February 13: Most of the flowers in this corner of the yard by the garage are daffodils. But there are a few stragglers mixed in just to confuse me.

February 13: The purple flowers are crocus bulbs. I noticed crocus flowers in the backyard when I first moved in and have tried to migrate them all to this area. I also planted some new bulbs a few years ago. They seem to grow well, but are in danger of being overrun by the ornamental grass.

February 15: The first daffodil of the year !

February 15: This is the first daffodil of the season. The rest should be appearing very soon.

February 15: I've got a bunch more on deck.

February 15: The crocus bulbs are doing well, but may have to be moved.

February 16: The next day, a few more daffodil flowers appeared.

February 16: I may have to move this daffodil out of the ornamental grass.

February 16: The crocus bulbs still look great.

February 24: More daffodils appear a week later.

February 24: I moved all of the daffodils I could find in the yard to this corner for "safe keeping" until I could figure out what to do with them.

February 24: I'll probably spread the cluster of daffodils in the corner out into the area seen above.

February 25: More daffodils bloom.

February 25: More daffodils bloom.

February 25: And the crocus bulbs still look great. It looks like I've got a few crocus bulbs being smothered by the ornamental grass.

March 2: The daffodils still look great !

March 2: Daffodils look great.

March 2: It also looks like the sad looking Persian Lilac is beginning to wake up for the season.

March 2: I tried to zoom in on the Persian Lilac, but the camera focused on the daffodil in the background.

March 2: Ah, that's better !

March 2: I found the two blue flowers in the center of the photo above in the backyard and decided to move them here. I'm not sure what they are, but they look nice.

March 11: I believe the blue flowers in the photos above and below are Blue Bells, but I'm not 100% sure.

March 20: The Blue Bells looked great for a couple of weeks.
