Verb: to pass the winter in a torpid or resting state. Well....the bulbs did not get the memo and have popped out the bag.

Had not been in the garage lately and the heat has been on steady, found some green growing up under the T's passenger fender

Aren't you supposed to plant those in the Fall? Now you have to wait until the ground thaws to plant them. Better get the greens some more light with a grow light, they look a little pale. Spring/flathead season is coming soon.

Could be worse. One of my cherry trees bloomed 3 weeks ago and a peach tree is blooming now. I'm sure there are some colder chill hours still to come to further complicate things.

We've had some daffodils starting to peek through the ground here in Kentucky, as well as the Rhododendrum budding. I noticed both of these phenomena before the recent cold snap which has been in the teens every night for the last week or so. Ponds and creeks are frozen over. Spring is on its way, tho.
