Message: [QUOTE="ClifSpliffy, post: 4171216, member: 9260"] well now, january[I] 22 - [/I]look what we found today [IMG]https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/8d/Tulip_tree_%28Liriodendron_tulipifera%29_buds_in_spring_06.jpg[/IMG] this is a pik from wiki, captioned 'tulip buds in [I]spring.'[/I] between the creepy crawlies showin up in the house a few days back, then today around midday becoming a bird festival outside, we decided to tour around to see whats going on in what seems like our temporary frozen tundra. the western dominant sun exposure tulip poplars were showing the above bling, so we decided to check some of the others (70 to 120 feet tall) with different sun profiles (east, valley, etc). nada. zippo. quite dramatic, really. later, i took the hand clippers to a couple of japanese red maples, and i discovered in a few places that there are now smaller twig/branches showing full red in color. january 22. [I]here comes the sun, and i say it's alright.........[/I] [/QUOTE]
