Last year 2011, we were still getting snow. This year 2012, we
are having 70's & 80's outside. Inside,
Mary has just repotted all of the tomatoes
and I just made my last order for Spring plants.
This year, I'm ordering plants from Bluestone, White Farm, and Plants Delight.
With our neighbors help, we're invading the frontyard.
The Apricot has bloomed and now the Nectarine. The Snow Fountain Cherry
has no fruit but really puts on a show. Poking up through the leaves and
such are many yellow, white and purple Crocus. Everyday I'll hold my
breath that we don't go below 32. Also the little Tulips are beginning to
open.
Just above and below are 2011 pics that decided to leave... Our Peony tree is budding and a Plumeria is out sunning, (1
year-old tropical) and is finally getting a third leaf. (2012) Outside, there is
no new construction going on. All beds, pathways, and structures are
complete. The only major project going on is weeding.
