    Good morning @LyndaG thank you for your confidence in Woo ,I say go for it now;)

    I have always associated it to mean the May Fly hatching out(as a trout fisherman) which in the old days was the first to the third week in May,but with this climate change and this is only my personal opinion I now believe it can be this Month:smile:

      Started to see most plants & shrubs budding two or three weeks ago and last week decided to (reluctantly) dig up a tree peony which had died as my other two had full leaves on them. Yesterday the dead one was bearing two buds, aren't I glad I was too lazy/busy to get rid of it last week.

      After these last few days of sun I feel I can really say Spring has sprung.

        I don't think so Annemieke! I live a lot further north than you and besides, I'd scare the neighbours. :biggrin:
