Enter Spring Blooms!

I’m back and hope you are still tuned in to this Blog. Several weeks have passed and the gardens have grown like weeds… well there are some weeds among the perennials who are pushing their way up. The perennial bed photo you now see below is the same position and same fork as last blog photo.

Yes, the background of the perennial border is the Crooked Arbor with the best ever blooms of Wisteria!

Our Zinnias in ten flats have arrived from Cascade Cuts. The next photo shows a few sprouted calendula in an empty bed waiting for those “State Fair” Zinnias. Is it too early to plant? Too cold? Nor more frost? I’ll wait till end of April to make sure. (Thanks to Jack and Nate for putting 2 inches of Bailey’s compost on the flower beds.)
