There are a few hardy violas braving the freezing temperatures. This morning they only had some leaves falling on them but by afternoon those cold snowflakes were falling again.

My late season little viola was dusted with snow overnight and it may get a little crispy in the below freezing temperature tonight.

Even if a flower managed to jump up through the frozen ground and snow, it would freeze rather stiff this sunny morning since it was -18ºF so no pretty flowers to look at for a while yet like these Viola tricolors, also called Jack-jump-up-and-kiss-me or Johnny jump ups.

The other day my mom was going through the seed catalog ordering her vegetables seeds and glancing at the flowers. The catalog gives a small reminder that spring will come someday again, but it is hard to picture when seeing a sea of white day after day.
