The ones with the long slender green leaves, each with a white center stripe. I think they're crocuses. Whatever they are, they're BACK!

worried that perhaps a late frost/freeze will strike, killing a lot of these buds.

These are extraordinary closeups. I greatly admire the details of the newest growth coming up next to last years dead branches and stems.

Amazing! Looks like you have a macro lens!

Thank you for these.

My cousin in North NJ : her snow drops were up about a week+ ago. 👍

I love you have that whole dense bunch together! Love that second photo of them.

I've only ever seen a few together.
