Soo here I will start:

What's happening in your little neck of the woods? Weather here is warmer (70-80'S)...So much nicer then then being cold.
I was outside working in my backyard yesterday...planting my annuals (finally)...we checked out the drip system too...making sure it is working correctly...finally fed the fruit trees!!! We should have done that last month. My cactus trees are blooming!! I have never seen blooms on them before.
My raised bed rose garden is looking prettier everyday. Roses are getting leaves and the bulbs have popped through too. One actually came up in the center of a light blue pansy. Can't wait to see what color it is. I have to plant the vegetable garden this week. I do have homegrown romaine lettuce and spinach that is ready to pick. Cool-I've never done this before.
I still have more to do in the gardens. It is getting done though so that is great. Then the hot weather will come....ugh.

RE: Monday, March 12

I have early Crocus everywhere, most of them planted intentionally, some from seed (guessing from where they are popping up). There are a few decent clumps of snowdrops, with hopes of more in future years, and scattered clumps of Iris reticulata and hybrids. Tulip and daffodil sproutlings everywhere, too, and the Jasminum nudiflorum is blooming. The Hellebores are getting ready to bloom, too--all different kinds.

I need to connect all the hoses and start watering, get to Lowe's and get pansies and primroses, and toss compost and fertilizer everywhere.
