5 Year old tabasco "tree", budding again.

Last years habenero plants coming back.

...And before anyone tells me, I know the beds need a good cleaning and topping off with fresh manure ;)

Just to poke a stick in everyone's eye that lives up north-

Orange Blossoms

Apple Blossoms

Peach Blossoms:

Plum Blossoms:

The unseasonably warm weather has plants all mixed up. We've had enough of a freeze to destroy all the buds on the Japanese Loquat, but I don't think we've had the needed chill hours for the stone fruit trees. It was forecast to be in the lower 30's at night this entire week, so we still can't plant warm weather veggies, and have to cover the cool weather veggies. Tender plants will have to come back indoors.
What we really need though, is rain; about 2+ weeks worth.

Thanks for sharing those pictures. Especially the pretty blooms. It helps to cheer up the day when we have lousy weather here.

Of course, there is always a little twinge of envy.LOL.
