Thanks but No Thanks Mr. Groundhog!!

So today February 2, the Groundhog definitely saw his shadow..but somehow I do not think the Daffodils, Mock Orange Shrub, and the Forget-Me-Nots are agreeing with that prognosis.

As you can see the Daffodils are at least 6 inches up.... The Mock Orange is perfuming the air with its citrus scents and .....the Forget-me-Nots are forgetting about there ever being a Winter.

I have too much emerging to take any diverse tactics, so for now I will enjoy the early Spring!
