Anyone in the south planting already?

I thought places in Texas started putting in corn by early March. Anyone planting anything or at least showing any green? It's gonna be at least another month or longer before we seed mud emerge from the snow banks.
 
I'm not planting food plots, but I have been on a tear transplanting shrubs and direct seeding chinkapins. I'm also cutting scion wood. Some pears already had green tips today.

Normally I’d be about 2 weeks out from planting field corn, but not this year. Prices are too high and the land is too dry. Sweet corn will go in when soil temp is 60 degrees because I set up irrigation on the field.

Wheat, oats, vetch, and some volunteer clover. I stopped planting rye because it’s not as desirable to deer and it doesn’t get cold enough to winter kill wheat and oats here.

I may switch back to rye, however, if I ended up getting a roller crimper.

Looks like you have some pretty good "help" in that photo as well

Are you on sandy ground there?
