We have had an extremely warm winter this year. February here in Utah was the warmest on record. I was seriously worried that my peach trees would start blossoming in February but fortunately it got colder again and the blossoms held off. They're blossoming now and it is still earlier than I ever remember. I just hope it doesn't freeze again and kill the fruit!
It is all beautiful and here they are on March 23rd:
 |
| This is my early peach tree (we usually get peaches in early August) and it is not as far along as my later peach tree which you see below. |
 |
| I think this peach tree must be in an extra warm spot in my yard. We usually don't get these peaches until late August. |
 |
| Here is my latest peach: mid-September for this fruit. |
 |
| The daffodils are in full swing. |
 |
| My vinca vine is blossoming. |
 |
| The forsythia has been blooming for several weeks and is almost finished. I think it started in late February. |
I feel almost guilty to be enjoying such nice weather! My parents in Boston have had the snowiest winter on record with over 100 inches of snow. My son in Canada has temperatures in the 20's and my other son in Ukraine has been in the 30's. Maybe we'll be paying for it later with an extra hot summer...
