Predictions of a late Spring
The local radio station informed me the prediction is for a late Spring….it doesn’t come as a shock.
I have just woken to -15 degrees in the garden.
This year, more than ever, I will be grateful for our season change.
Seedlings
Little tender Hollyhock seedlings.
A Snow Day
Blizzard conditions persist through the day today…of coarse I have bundled up and buried my self in garden magazine, books, blogs and Pinterest images.
You won’t find Winter pictures here on Down To Earth Digs…I’m protesting!
Seedlings
The little tender herb seedlings soaking up the sun.
So, It’s going to warm up?
Even Jimmy is tired of Winter.
He misses his naps in the sunshine and his pasture of green grass.
The best red
A week of red would not be complete without some tasty tomatoes.
Heirloom Costoluto Genovese, as pretty as flowers!
Seeds available for this Heirloom in my little garden store
A Red Door
Rabbit Run Cottage has made a few changes as it grows older.
Haven’t we all?!!!
I still remember Lucy, 6 years old, going in and out of the little door, cut just for her size.
I painted that door 3 times, until I got the red I loved.
Peppermint striped zinnia
Today’s splash of red!
Weathered Red
Weathered red barn wood reused to make a birdhouse for the garden.
A sweet little House Wren likes this little spot each Spring.
She is little and chatty–hmmm, kinda sounds like me!
