We have germination! Several varieties of tomato, squash and basil. Still waiting on other seeds, but it's only been a week so far.
And I've forged ahead with lots of dividing and transplanting of perennials and re-mulching in an effort to head off the yellow menace from the bed under the window in the front. Or at least to have more variety when it sneaks it's way in again - it doesn't seem to be deterred by shade - just sends new creepers right underneath.
Mark mowed the lawn, so I sprinkled clover seed in everywhere - with luck the grass will get phased right out...
Several of last year's kale plants survived the winter, and new leaves are coming out. We're not sure if the fact that I cut the stems short mean it will flower, or just produce leaves. One thing's for sure - we're going to be eating kale sooner than we did last year!
