Spring snow is usually beautiful large delicate flakes that melt soon after landing on the earth. This year the snow is covering the ground - it's spring - and if the snow wasn't there we would have lots of spring flowers starting to show their leaves.

We have lots of cacti in the outdoor cold frames covered with snow. We haven't seen these cacti of about 3 months and I really miss them. Hopefully the snow will all melt this week and the cold frames can be opened so the cacti can see the sun again.

If it weren't for this thick layer so snow the Pediocactus plants might even be forming buds by now. Out in the garden where the spring bulbs grow we would surely have Snow Drops by now if the snow would just melt already.
