Most primulas are deer resistant, so don't bother hiding those pots away.
Try the bulbs anyway. If you keep them in pots, you can hide them away after they've finished blooming. My plain daffodils (paper-whites and single trumpet daffodils) do bloom earlier, but the fancy doubles are definitely March flowers.
If you're going to prune your roses, do it in December so that they'll be ready to bloom in March.
You're right about the fruit trees. They weren't on my list because I never take pictures of them, but the plum, pear, and peach trees are in bloom in March.
