Hey, Spring–where are you?
With another 8″ of Spring snow dropped on the garden, we are still warming ourselves by the fire.
Rosie is growing and learning all about the garden, chickens no longer scare her!

A recent addition to my vintage garden sprinkler collection.

Self seeding, and showing up all over the garden!
Garden Gear
Lucy hung out in greenhouse with me on Sunday, trying to soak up some warmth!
I had my camera with, and she snapped away at the seedlings and then had me model my new linen garden apron I made.
Just look at that pose!

Pondering Season
As the cold weather still hangs on, work around the garden remains on hold.
This leaves me pondering….
The fence needs to be stained again–should I change the color? I’m leaning to a slightly darker grey.
What should I plant on this North side of the garden?
It’s partly shaded–Perennials or more cutting flowers?
Nasturtium
Time to start the Nasturtium seeds.
A tradition for me, I plant them every year.
I use to always plant them in containers, or a window box,
then I visited a lovely garden where the gardener had them meandering all along the edges of her Perennials.
One of those moments–“Why didn’t I ever do that?”
Now the Nasturtium meander around the edges of my garden.
Happy Easter
