I have flower buds!!!!!!!!!!!! Whoopee!!!! This is the eighth season.
I only see a half-dozen or so, but its a start. This must be the "creep" year. LOL
I wish I kept better track of any fertilizing I may have done, especially last year. It's been sketchy.
Hmmm...I did start a pile of grass clippings about 10 feet away and a general debris pile about 10 feet in another direction. I wonder if it stole from that? There was also a nearby maple that generated a gazillion flowers this spring (helicopters EVERYWHERE) that I have never noticed before shedding anything.
The area where it is growing is woods next to the driveway that is partially cultivated. I've always thought that years of leaf litter and natural debris was creating good soil on its own. It always looked good. But maybe not enough for everyone though...
Or maybe I should stop analyzing and just enjoy the victory!!! yea!!!!
