so much going on!

The past month has seen everything from freezing temperatures to the current temperature of 81°. Some how the yard manages. I have added more seeds to the veggie plots: radishes, spinach, carrots, lettuce, maybe some kale. The front yard received a nice layer of leaf mulch.

Many blooms over the past two months, in rough order of appearance: crocus, daffodils, serviceberry, blueberries, columbine, violets, wild strawberries (real ones, not mock strawberries), fothergilla, foam flower, woodruff is just starting. The beat up azaleas look as though they’ve not given up. Several ferns have returned as well as solomon’s seal, tradescantia, the hostas, echinacea, some form of white Joe Pye weed, and the cardinal flower seems to be regaining strength.

I’ll have to post some photos soon. Until then,
christopher
