waiting

The air outside is chilly and there is a freezing rain advisory posted for this morning. The forecast goes on to show rain for later today and a bit of snow tomorrow. Hmm... We're only a week away from the vernal equinox yet the ground is still covered by a blanket of snow.

When I look back to last year's emerging flowers I saw crocus on April 1st, daffodils on April 16th, and an early tulip on April 27th. I wonder if this year's late-leaving snow will push the flower season out a bit.

For today's color, I bring you a tulip from last weekend's Wellesley College greenhouse visit.
