Nice picture Sasha. In Ohio the cultivated Crocus flowers start in March. Your last photo set covered the 4 seaons completely

Re: Army of Saffron Flowers

Thanks Mark! March is quite early. But I think that is only flowers you are talking about not trees?! Here it looks like this; on the coast spring begins (when trees begin to turn green I’m talking about) around 10-15th of April. Around May 1st greenery reaches 500-800m altitude. High areas like on this page (above 1500m) begin to turn green in last third of May, sometimes not before June. In Lika region behind Velebit (500-600m) it never begins to go green before May. Lika is so much colder than seaboard side of Velebit at same altitude.
