The garden is springing back to life with the season turning. The days are longer and warmer, and the plants are waking up from a nice winter's doze-- cuz let's be honest: it never really got cold enough here to truly be called "winter."
We have vegetables and fruits poking their heads out of the soil or starting to bud. The newest rhubarb plant is enjoying its new home.
The strawberry plants are starting to take over the ground in the lower garden, which is fine by us. A few plants even have buds on them.
The big rhubarb, also in the lower garden, already has produced huge leaves. We just need to let the stalks get a bit longer and we can have an early harvest for pie or crumble.
The grass is looking quite lush and green (ignoring the chickweed and crabgrass of course) and we have several new bulbs coming up: lilly of the valley, chinese lanterns.
Indoors, we have our seedlings, some more ready than others to be put outside. We will have to get most of them in the ground shortly-- they are getting too tall for the growing tray.
