Can anyone smell spring coming ?

Spring has come too early this here in Rustenburg, South Africa:

This picture of the Mulberries was taken last week. Other trees that are budding are Japanese Maples, Pomegranate, Celtis, Buxus,some Acacia, Bougainvillea and Combretum.

Oh well, we are going to have a 10 month long growing season here!

I would say yes, but I am sure that August still has plans to put a frost or two on the idea.
I have a trident which is in bud burst one week after re-pot.
