My azaleas have started to bloom, just a few now, but lots of buds.

I love them too Ann and I agree, they should bloom longer! P.S. My cactus is doing so well, I was thinking about you this AM. I'll wait a bit and then post a new picture for you.

Hi Mimi, I'm really late coming to a lot of your puzzles. I have a lot of catching up to do. I saw this & was so pleased that you have some blooming. I have ONE bush, out of about twenty, that is blooming like crazy right now. All the others are like yours---just about ready to pop. Mine usually bloom early to mid Feb., so they're right on schedule. I can hardly wait I enjoy them so much---wish they'd bloom longer, though.................

You certainly may Shirley! I'd be tickled!

Mimi, this is a beautiful flower, may I use it to create a puzzle?

I'll do it Ank, especially for you!

They are lovely Hanne, but don't worry, your Spring will come!

We usually have a cold snap around Easter Tex, I wonder if that will happen this year?

This is early even for us, Mimi. You must already be getting hot. We are, too. This is beautiful. Thanks.

Ohhhhhh!! SIGH!!! Enjoy them for me too!! Thanks so very much Mimi!!

Lovely Mimi, I hope you will make an other phto in a few days.

Thanks Pat!

Soooo pretty thanks..

Thanks Jan and EF. I just put on a picture of some pretty blooms from last year.

Wow, how pretty! Looking forward to see it in full bloom:)

I LOVE azaleas......and rhodies! Thanks, Mimi!

It has been warm lately so I think they are early this year Julia, but they pretty much bloom on some mysterious schedule of their own.

Thanks Gnt! The bushes will be covered in a week or two and I'll post some pictures then.

very nice flower

How beautiful, Mimi! I am amazed to see them blooming now. Do yours normally start blooming this time of year?
