After an extremely snowy winter and cold temps this March, I expected most bulbs to bloom late this year. But, looking back at bloom dates for daffodils they are a week early this year. Above is a picture of Tete a tetes (mini daffodils) that come out first. In the next week or so, the larger daffodils will bloom.
I happened to be in New York City on Friday and noticed that daffodils and hyacinth are blooming in the city. You would think that being only a couple degrees difference in latitude would not make much difference, but NYC is a couple of weeks ahead of Rhode Island in blooming times.
