Garden Diary - April 19

We had a full snow April 7, which was a bit of a shock. But everything seems to have come through just fine.

My forsythia bloomed (probably sometime on April 17, during the first really warm day of spring). The hyacinths are in full bloom, and the tulips and daffodils shouldn't be too far behind.

Also - my rhubarb transplant in the front yard is looking great - its leaves are already larger than the parent plant.

My seedlings are coming along well; the tomatoes are the farthest along, with their first set of true leaves.

All of the ground cover plants seem to have gained alot of ground over the winter, and look amazing now. The lemon thyme is currently in bloom.

Garden Diary - April 5

I've got seeds sprouting, more flowers growing (hyacinths, and some of the newly planted crocuses). Spring is definitely in the air!
