The Garden is calling me … I received two new seed catalogs. Yea!
All kinds of organic, heirloom and hybrid varieties.
Other cool garden accessories and products…
For tonight … that’s all I got. Been burning the candle from both ends this week, but I’ll be dreaming about the garden tonight. [Also I am having terrible writer’s block. Sometimes this is as good as it gets.]
I woke up and it’s Spring. First week of March down and it seems like it was just winter – wait it was just winter. One month ago we were still digging out of a big-time snow storm that left all of North Texas crippled — school was cancelled for a week!
This looks like the coldest animal on Earth
Nothing says spring in Graham like Daffodils.
There was once a big push to make Graham the Daffodil Capital. [of Texas or the U.S., I’m not sure]. But you can still see the remnants all around us.
To me Spring means Baseball …
AND gardening. Oh how I love to plant stuff to watch it grow …
Plant a seed and watch it grow ...
This year, Spring has a new element for me – my greenhouse! One of the best, most-thoughtful gifts ever given to me. (awwwhhh – thanks, babes.)
The day it was set into place ... We have very good skilled labor. Look at the hat --it's felt-- that means winter.
Look! Sprouted seeds! This just happens to be Nasturtiums, which are also edible. Very cool touch to throw a few blossoms into a tossed salad.
When these sprouts grow up they should look like this …
A red nasturtium ...
And look at the Tomatoes! Oh I am hopeful that we will have lots of good Tomatoes!
Just a few good tomatoes ...
I am sharing my plants with other vegetable gardeners around me. Just a few good tomatoes … that’s all I’m looking for. That and maybe a BLT sandwich …
