Garden Diary - Mar 21


We've gone from a beautiful 18 degrees celsius on Friday, to light snow flakes drifting through the air this morning. But spring is definitely on the way. Friday evening I got to work in the front garden, clearing out dead leaves and pruning the rose bush down - now I can see the yellow crocuses (in full bloom) and purple crocuses (just getting started), plus the green tips of the other bulbs pushing through. It's interesting to see how many of the bulbs I planted two years ago are now being hidden by some of the other perennials - everything really is filling in.

I organized the seeds this morning into those that will be started indoors (hopefully next weekend), those that will be planted outside early (also possibly next weekend), and those that will be planted outside once the weather is consistently warm in May.
