So when is it really spring? Ask a tree.

So it's warming up and the grass is getting greener, but is it really spring?  The native trees, shrubs and flowers can give us the real story.  Non-native plants, brought in from other parts of the world such as daffodils and jasmine may try to fool us with early flowers, but for real spring watch the natives.  Here in middle Georgia at Jarrell Plantation, winged elm is always first, producing a rain of small elliptical seeds well before lilac colored redbud, white dogwood, and  sweet smelling yellow jessamine vine.  And watch the ground for trout lily, spring beauties and hepatica.
