How will they do between now and genuine Spring, I wonder.

In Mid Suffolk Pansies in pots outside have now burst in to bloom, with
leaves doubling in amount in last few days. Honeysuckle on exposed fence has
new leaves bursting out on it and crocus and Iris bulbs are sprouting
through in garden. Blackbirds are chasing each other - To keep warm??
However At 1100 hrs this morning there were still some very icy patches,
even on A roads here after extensive hoar frost early. Frost on shaded grass
all day today. Seems there had been no salting of roads at all in this area
overnight. Amazing after all the warnings that had been issued for snow
freezing on the roads overnight last month when there was no snow and often
main roads here were dry and had been regularly salted in response to
warnings.
