We have germination

With the extraordinarily warm weather we've been having, I'm not at all surprised to see my "dormant" seeding quickly germinate. I saw the first evidence as early as March 16th (11 days after planting):


And, even more so on the 18th:


And a lot more so today:


This is pretty impressive considering that last year I planted on this date and germination didn't occur until April 9th. The weather has been very unusual this year with record-setting early warmth, so I'm very much hoping that we don't have a late hard freeze.
