Despite the cold weather, the plants are making progress toward spring.
The honeysuckle leaves above on March 7 are the same ones I photographed on February 20 below.
It’s interesting to note that the first leaves that opened in February are still small, though mature. Newer leaves are the normal size.

No plants budding in the rural areas. Nothing in our yard has broken bud yet in Washington County.
