Yellow and purple crocuses. I planted these last fall and was so pleased that the squirrels ignored them!
Yellow pansies and a periwinkle blue hyacinth - the only one I have ever planted that the squirrels didn't eat! This is possibly because I planted it after forcing it last year, so it always had some foliage and roots.
Muscari aka Grape Hyacinths - they smell amazing but you have to get on the ground to smell them! I enjoy the green foliage after the flowers fade away.
The first daffodil to bloom this year.
This huge camellia has been blooming for about a month now.
I bought four blueberry bushes at Hutto's last week, and they are all in bloom. They aren't planted in a very sunny spot, so I may have to move them next year. I'll report back on that.
Lorapetalum - love the hot pink fringy flowers on this shrub.

I love grape hyacinths! Seamus found out that they aren't edible, though (puked up his dinner...)
Welcome to the blog world, blogger!
Lesley: Poor Seamus! (I feel bad for also thinking that is hilarious)
Anon.: Thanks!
Your crocus are lovely, and the yellow and purple are perfect for spring. I enjoy Muscari, but mine won't be up for a while.
Lucky for you, the squirrels had trouble getting the rooted hyacinth out of the all you can eat squirrel buffet.
