Last fall I planted some florist’s Freesia in my protected cold frame. They
took the winter well, growing very slowly. I expected them to surge into
growth as soon as the temperatures moderated, but they are coming into bloom
only now. 

 

Gladiolus tristis in the same frame is also now blooming. 

 

Brodiaea terrestris is blooming, too.

 

Days of heavy rain have turned the foliage of many early risers to mush.
