Subject: RE: BS: The Spring Garden (N. Hemisphere)
bummer about your missing plants! do you have a shot gun?/! some kind of compliment that she picked yours to nab?! I have my hands permanently stained brown and green from weeding and grubbing around in the garden. Had several meals from the asparagus patch this year...hooray for Hollandaise sauce! yum yum the daffodills and tulips are basically finished blooming as is the daphnia, quince, forsythia and star magnolia. The redbud and lilac are beginning to fade now. I wonder why my wisteria has never bloomed? perhaps too much pruning? Apples, nectarines, cherries and apricot trees are done blooming too. The roses are coming on and the clematis are too. Pansies are smiling away , and candy tuft, iris, calendula too. I wish whoever planted the vinca had never done it but the little blue flowers are nice for butterflies. Potatoes are up and peas too. and fava beans. oh yes and grape hyacinth. I also have some hanging baskets of Fuschia and Million Bells. Gotta fill the humming bird feeder soon.
