East Texas in Spring

East Texas is gorgeous in the spring. So many native trees and shrubs are in bloom along with the garden plants in many yards. Mary and I and our wonderful employees really enjoy this time of year. Nursery people are usually plant crazy and I know we all are. It's fun to stock the nursery with all our beautiful plants and to shop for the ones we don't grow ourselves. Every day is like Christmas with new things arriving and something different coming into bloom.
It seems warmer, earlier to me this year but the weather in Texas is always a surprise.  
Quickly now everything is greening up. The flower buds on many of the deciduous shrubs are swelling.
