Bud Burst & Emergence

It's amazing how quickly plants can change in spring. There are not enough hours in the day to garden.

My temporary cold frames took a little beating from winter, but they worked very well nonetheless. 
I overwintered cuttings and stratified seeds in the front two and later added the back two for hardening off seedlings and starting more seeds.
