Here's a poplar tree. They're also called popples by lots of people, myself included. This is what's going on in the Champlain Valley. Where I live there are no leaves, not a one. The soft maples, as I've said, are starting to bud, as are the tamaracks (I noticed yesterday). No sign of life anywhere else except for my daffodils, and they're domestic plants. Won't be long before wildflowers will start popping up. The hepatica is probably blooming in the woods, along the trail to the bluffs, but I never go up there. I noticed the marsh marigolds blooming along the road on my way to work, which is pretty amazing when you realize there was no sign of them on Friday.
