Wildflowers: Early Spring

The earliest blooming flowers start to make their appearance in February, often with just a few blossoms here and there. You'll find more flowers in exposed south-facing areas that warm up faster at this time of year. The end of "early spring" is roughly when the Bigleaf Maples have leafed out.
