it's winter

No big surprise, I know, as it's supposed to be winter here.
How slow it's been in coming you can judge by these:

They were supposed to quietly wait for spring in their sheltered place on my balcony, but I discovered them busily growing instead. Luckily I made the discovery just before the frost came and moved them inside.

So, how is your winter? (or summer, depending on where you are)
