Welcome to Mary and Gary's Garden Diary for March
March in Nebraska often means more snow. Mixed in with days when
it is 70 to 80 degrees outside. Inside, all of the Feb. starts get repotted
along with an order or two for some Spring plants.
I really like Plants Delight and Bluestone but they are not cheap.
I had most of the zone-5 fruit trees removed and replaced with zone-4 and
now I'm waiting for them to grow up. 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.
The Peony tree is budding and a Plumeria is out sunning, (1
year-old tropical) and is finally getting a third leaf. Outside, there is
no new construction going on. All beds, pathways, and structures are
complete. The only major project going on is weeding.
