Spring is here officially and biologically(even with the last 2 nights in the low 30's). It was supposed to get down around 28F but thankfully didn't. I guess I didn't need to cover my little Lilac bush that has it's 1st buds this year after all;>.....
It's been a busy couple of months with last month's apt flood and basically all this month putting things back together(still have all my books boxed...waiting for insurance to pay to get replacements). So crazy that today was the 1st day in almost 2 months where weather and timing cooperated enough to go sit out on the deck and smoke. Sitting out and watching the robins in the yard and ducks down in the water(we live on an inlet of one of the TVA reservoirs), watching the last of the Daffs bobbing in the breeze and the species Tulips just opening up. Since regular ones aren't reliably Perennial I'm testing a number of species this yr. The weirdest thing is that a yellow-leaved White flowered Bleeding Heart is producing Pink one's this yr!
I've been Stratifying seeds every 2 months since January and so far I have 2 batches potted up into 3" pots and last weekend the last of them planted into their jiffy pots. I'll start Stratifying again in June for the Biannial/Cool Season Perennial seeds. Some day I'll get English Primroses;>!
Cheers,
Pat
