Helen - You've got groves? Wow! I have all of three trees (front, back, and side yards).
But the one just outside my living room window is a redbud tree, and I can't wait for it to burst forth. Admittedly though, it would look far better in a grove. I hope it's not lonely.
I've been peeping and prodding my gardens, checking to see who made it through the long winter, who's being the harbringers, and who's holding back. The croci, alas, have succumbed to the squirrel armies.
Sadly, my good 14-year-old hound became seriously ill, and though she is recovering, she has suddenly become an "old dog". I fear this will be her last spring, and instead of renewal, I will be forced to watch her fade.
