Spring Gardening

Over Easter weekend I got out & had a chance to begin yard clean-up.

Full yard bags & green bin waiting to go out on garbage day

3 leaf piles [still] waiting to be picked up

first crocuses!

Only yellow crocus in the entire yard


Front garden cleared of leaves, cultivated, and anemone bulbs planted

Seeds sown for an indoor start!


Then today, I finally got up the courage to plant my early spring flowers (because I saw a greenhouse up the mountain planting theirs!)

crocuses in the front bed

Blueberry bush in the front is newly planted, the larger one in back was already there. (I did plant the blueberry bush a couple of weeks ago.)

Planter by the front door!

Mums by the base of the front steps

Mums planted by existing bush near sidewalk

A front flower bed full of spring colour!



Seeds are sprouting!

Marigold on left (one of 13) and edible violet on right (the only one so far)

I love gardening - can't wait to get the veggie garden started!
