Seattle weather question

[ksmith]

I know I asked this before, but I've forgotten the answer. End of March--are lawns green? Flowers starting to bloom? More sunny or more rainy? I've visited Seattle in April, and everything was green and flowering.

My spring bulbs are out and about by the end of FEBRUARY, certainly by mid-March. The rhododendrons are starting to come in. Yes, I'd say flowers are definitely out.

Lawns - I don't know. I don't own one.

Roses?

Usually the roses wait until April or May, depending on how much sunshine we get. But if it were a very warm winter, then March for the earliest of mine (close to the house so they stay warm) isn't completely out of the question. Mine are miniatures growing in a planter beneath the daylight basement window. The large bushes, however, wait longer.

Thank you. I have a little rewriting to do.
