With all the really nice weather we have been having, I went to Prarie Gardens last week....twice. We worked in the yard the other, raking some leftover leaves, throwing them on the compost pile and stuffing them in the raised vegetable beds. With the leaves mostly gone you can see the beginnings of the daffodils, tuplics, hyacinths, new irises, peonies, phlox, salvia, lilies and more! You remember last year when I complaining about planting bags of daffodils, tulips and crocuses? Well, it will all be worth it when they bloom!
The snowdrops in the backyard are already blooming and so cute! At Prarie Gardens I also picked up some bright orange pansies and some begonia tubers (wish me luck, I've not done begonias before). I'm hoping for some bangin' hangin' baskets this year! I bought some red hanging begonias and some orange hanging begonias. Most of my garden is purple and yellow with a little bit of pink, soooo red and orange begonias were me trying to open my color horizons. I also picked up some broccoli plants, and a couple of little tomato plants (I know it's really early, but they were just sitting there...)
