The First Roses of the Year



I found a few cheap tea roses at Farm & Fleet but it was too cold to put them outside. So instead I watered them, put them in an old wastebasket and set them beside the door to the deck. And then they started blooming!

On another note...my seeds did arrive and I got them planted under lights.

And outside the lettuce, sweet peas, larkspur and pansies are up. I haven't checked on the spinach, green onions or radishes yet. Maybe tomorrow.

Fleeting Spring


The crocus were up on March 21. And then Kayla, a granddaughter, picked them.
