Winter-Spring Break

It was spring. And then it was winter. And today spring is back. 

Hey, look! It's Spring!

(Before spring break)

 Hey, look! It's winter.

I guess I will recover.

 March 2: mater seedlings up

This season I've been using an NK biodegradable

10-packs to start a lot of seedlings in. I've found them 

at Rural King and Dollar General. 50 cells for $3.

I originally got them because I thought it would be the easiest

solution to planting perennials in the hellstrip beds and then

decided to use them for the tomatoes as well.

East border hedge

 

 I liked this one. Yellow as yolk.

 I also like the cyclamen types- they are 

like shooting stars and especially nice

when they bob in the wind.

 More cyclamen types

 A peach blossom I suspect didn't make it through

the freeze.
