March 2011
The snow has melted….finally! But I keep reminding myself that this doesn’t mean that the snow is gone for good. March has been known for being a wacky month since it can snow like the dickens or be warm. Since the snow is gone I thought I would make the most of my day and head out to the gardens. And what did I find?!? …… things are starting to grow back. I have come to LOVE this time. Plants such as herbs, veggies, and flowers that are perennials grow back each year without any help from me. God’s gift to gardeners. I don’t have to haul out any dirt or fertilizer or tools; all I have to do is watch. It truly is the first signs of spring. Not to say I didn’t do any gardening today because I did. Today, I was planning on just taking a few photos of some brussel sprouts and carrots that I tried to over winter. But then I decided to to a peek at my rhubarb which is coming up beautifully. And since I went to look at that, I might as well head on over to the apple and cherry trees. Well, why don’t I check out the peonies, irises, tulips, daises, etc. So I ending up digging up a bunch of irises and taking out most of the dead growth from the irises and daises.
