Iris reticulata and mascara coming up in pots...

Is this too early?  the pots were left from last winter in a shady spot in the garden and I was surprised to see growth already?

    Muscari are always leafing up in early autumn here ... and with an early autumn like this its probably even earlier ... we don't have any so I can't check.  I'm sure they'll be fine ... growth will slow to a halt when the temperatures drop and start again when they pick up.   :)

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    My muscari has been producing leaves for a few weeks now.  Not sure about the iris - but I wouldn't worry about them.   :)
    Your thread title made me smile, @Copperdog - I guess spellcheck thought it knew better than you did.  Drives me nuts when it happens to me!
    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
