We STILL have little patches of snow on the ground despite the fact it was 50 degrees today! So no...I haven't started our garden yet. When I do, it's minimal because we have perennial beds in the front & back (thank you to the people who lived here before us!) but I did see the daffodils poking through the brown of the dead grass and leaves today and it made me smile!
I always do a pot of something bright like petunias or impatiens near the front door, but we have tulips in a row there too. In the back, I like to do a pot of herbs so I can grab them quick off the deck while I'm cooking. I will also plant one of each of a bush tomato, a grape tomato, and a cherry tomato, plus a banana pepper, a bell pepper, all from little plants I buy. I will probably attempt snap peas & morning glories together again-it's a pretty combination climbing up a trellis

I planted cosmos seeds for a couple years and now I don't have to plant them anymore because I have perpetual volunteers that keep coming back
