Our pansies are blooming due to a warming trend that has brought a temporary early spring to our garden this year, which made me smile as I checked on my plants and admired their vibrant colors. The unexpected warmth has prompted these resilient flowers to bloom early. As I knelt beside them, I noticed they did favor the pansies of last year, and the seedlings looked very much like the parent plants. Each blossom seems to be a reminder to enjoy the moment, as it will soon get cold and they will become dormant until spring.
