The Watch is On!

Mrs. Bloomfield's first grade class reports that our tulips have emerged!
By Patsy Bowen in Independence, Kansas on February 22.
"We can't believe that they emerged this early we think this is because the whether has been really warm."
Plymouth, Massachusetts on February 27."Even though we had an unexpected snow this morning we found lots of tulips sticking their heads up and being brave."
Wilkeson, Washington on February 23.
Emerging in Canada
Until this week, the most northern location for emerging gardens was Washington state. Can you find the Canadian garden emerging above 44°N latitude in the Midwest?
"Class went on a 10 minute walk of our grounds looking for early signs of spring. We saw trees in bud, the beginnings of green grass and plants starting to sprout. Our last stop was at our Journey North Tulip bed. We were excited to see that the first of our bulbs was beginning to emerge.
Kingston, Ontario on February 28.

Humble, Texas on February 19.
