Pyxie, Golden Club, Broom Crowberry some of the earliest. Winter is not over yet and we could still get a cold spell/blizzard/etc but I am wondering if this exceptionally warm weather continues if Spring will have sprung a bit early this year.
Warm weather - Early Spring flowers?

This has got to be the warmest February in my 24 years in the pines. If the forecast holds up, there are going to be something like 6 days above 70 degrees and a whole bunch above 50 degrees. A couple warm days is normal, but this is crazy. A few years ago we had a mild winter and everything was blooming in March. Then we got some freezes and it really did a lot of damage in my woods, almost completely killed some of the big laurel bushes.
Yeah, I've worn a jacket only twice so far this year, its certainly been very warm.. Usually a sweatshirt has been good enough. We shall see how the season ends but I will certainly be keeping my eyes open for early flowers!
Our crocus have been in bloom for about 2 weeks, primrose and daffodils are budded out.
