Report from the yard

As of this just-past weekend, the paperwhite narcissi were still in full bloom, even the very first stalks. It has been that cool. Now there are flower buds appearing among the Montopolis (Avalanche- or Grand Primo-type) narcissi. Pink oxalis is in bloom. Every lantana plant, no matter where located, has been touched by frost. The first ones to suffer are now dropping their leaves. The grass isn't growing. At last it's probably headed for dormancy, but it's still green no matter where located. Since this is the case, it's only the species tulips, ranunculus, and anemones, which stick their heads up way above grass level, that we can see for sure since there's no contrast in color. There's almost no place to walk in the yard anywhere, for fear of stepping on something. Our tree continues to drink water and smell great.
