Do you know what that is? That is SPRING people!! Yes, spring has sprung here in WA state! Yesterday I went out onto the back patio and cleared away the leaf mulch that was covering all the plants in the retaining wall garden. Ok...that sounds SO Martha Stewarty...making you think I took the time last fall to baby my plants and cover them with a special mulch to protect them through the winter...nope..I just left them alone and the leaves just piled up on them over the fall! :)
Anyways...when I removed the mulch, there were all these green shoots coming from my perennials! YAY!!!! The days are sunny and actually considered 'warm'...the nights are still cold enough that we have frost in the mornings, but that is gone by 10 am or so. Today I am going to head down to the bottom acre and check my 'bulb garden' to see if any daffodils/tulips/hyacinths are up! If they are, I'll post some pictures to make all those living in Wisconsin have some hope that some day...SOME DAY the snow will melt! :)
Hugs to all,
Jaye
