On March 29 we found Coltsfoot blooming in a ditch near our place and everyday since then I have been looking for it on our property. Up until yesterday there was absolutely no sign of it. Our patch is on a northern ravine slope so it is slower than in many other places.
This morning I saw first one, then three and finally thirteen emerging flowers and many more emerging plants. Amazing how quickly things grow when they decide it is time.
I took all three photos of the plants in various stages this morning all within a metre of each other.

Plants stretching up
Flower opening up.
It should be all the way open later today
if the sun comes out.

I was correct.
There were blooms in the afternoon
and over 60 plants showing colours.
