Crocuses. Or is it croci?
~~
Ah je vous jure ça fait chaud au coeur de voir ça! Je suis super impatiente de pouvoir commencer un petit potager, mais c’est peut-être encore un peu tôt, non?… s’ il y en a parmi vous qui savent comment s’y prendre, je suis tout ouïe!

How amazing do these little guys look? I’m just in awe of Nature. How early can I start digging and planting edible stuff, I wonder? If any of my readers have this sort of knowledge, I’d love some advice/websites!
Crocuses are a good sign that the ground is warming up and getting ready to turn. You are in D.C. yes? You are several zones south of me, about 5 weeks ahead I think. You can probably start planting some hardier things now. Peas probably. Wait another month on tomato seedlings and such. Ask at your local garden center, see what plants they have out but beware, they sometimes put plants out a little too soon in my experience.
