Eriisa: yup are you right ma dear!

Canada has a very large and diverse range of geographic features. Canada is divided into 10 provinces and 2 territories. Canada stretches from the Pacific Ocean on the west, to the Atlantic Ocean on the east. Northern Canada reaches into the Arctic Circle, while southern Canada stretches below the northern points of the United States.

So then, cannot a front originate in the artic while INSIDE Canada???

Относно: for my garden buds to fight off the winter blahs
Forcing branches for indoor bloom is one of the great pleasures of late winter, and it's a snap to do. Branches that force best include the Forsythia & Redbud, as well as Pussy Willow, Quince, Cherry, Apple(ornamental crabapples work well), and Witchhazel.
The easiest way to force blooms is to wait until you notice the buds starting to swell. Then just cut the branches, bring them indoors, put them in water, and wait a few days for them to work their magic.
If you want to introduce the season even sooner, you can cut the branches after the shrub has been dormant at least six weeks. Completely submerge the cuttings in a tub of cold water for several hours. Re-cut the ends, vertically slicing the lower inch or 2 of each branch in half so it can better take up water. Put the branches in a large vase of water in a cool spot near a window, and in two or three weeks, you'll have beautiful blooms.

its not to everyones taste,I myself hate cutting growing things.

nobleheart: i saw a moth fluttering madly against the trunk of a tree last night in my headlights, and i knew what S/he was thinking: "damn! it's COLD! i can't fly! this isn't supposed to be happening! helllllllp!!!"

or something much like that, i'm sure.

i think it's the temperature see-saw we've been on all winter, at least around the eastern seaboard here (can you say, "global warming"? sure. i knew you could), and that a few warm days we've had recently have fooled some bugs and buds into coming out way too early.

Ms. ScarletRose: if You mean the first day of spring, and if the Vernal Equinox is the first day of spring, which i believe it is, that's March 20 this year.

their are a patch of Snowdrops (Galanthus)in the cemetery near here:

Snowdrops

that come up ..often thro the last snow..as soon as the ground starts to thaw.
it is one of the early signs of winter.I will take a piccie & share..as soon as I see this early sign of spring.
