Default Confused Plants

So here I am in eastern Tennessee. In theory at least it is the dead of
winter. The problem is that the daffodils are now 4" high, the hyacinths
threaten to break through the mulch, and the crocus is doing the same. The
forsythia is blooming, as are some of the creeping phlox and periwinkle.

There is no climate change -- the Great Orange God has told us that it is
just a Chinese hoax. Will somebody please tell the plants?


Oh yeah. Just noticed that the frilly red Dianthus that always self-seed by
the phlox is blooming now too. I wonder how long it will be before the
Azaleas are in bloom...
