Signs of Spring

I thought I'd better post this before it snows again. Seriously, this is the longest winter ever. I snapped this photo early in the week, while I was outside desperately searching for some signs of new growth. I was pleasantly surprised to see this brave little white crocus who sadly froze and wilted the next day but I knew we were moving in the right direction.
I am also happy to report that all 3 of my rhubarb plants survived the winter. Not sure how they will taste being in a quite shady situation but I hope to harvest a stalk or two this spring.
