February’s weather was up and down. We had very cold days, as you would expect in Feb, but we also had days in the 50s. We tried to get out and about and make some plant observations. We went to a new park, Hartshorn Woods, which was a treat in it’s Winter glory. But we also saw some signs of Spring.

A Winter beach.
Intense green and red.
Our montauk daisies are always hoping for Spring.
I love cafes with tons of plants. It was nice to visit this one in Montclair, NJ.
We had a few beach days this month.

A night encounter.
These croci were very early this year…
…but that didn’t stop them.

I worried this month, when I went to look back at my photos, that I would have nothing to show. In my mind, February was bleak, but in fact, Feb was full of plants, full of color and light. To me, reflecting back on the plants of the month reminds me to see the living joy all around us at any time of the year.
What were your plant observations this month?
