The rain stopped and I felt like getting some fresh air and just see what was going on in my gardens. One is a new garden. I am making it so it is in my view every time I walk into the kitchen and glance outside. That will keep me smiling!
A few days ago I started tilling. I also sprayed with Weed and Grass Killer to make it easier on me. The ground was very hard due to no moisture. It was hard work and knew I couldn’t get it done in the time period I allowed. I could however get this done if I kept doing 15 minute segments. So that is what I am continuing to do. Today I raked the dead grass away, put it in my cart to haul away.
I decided to take the scenic route back to the house. I wanted to check on the bulbs I planted last fall. As I approached the garden I saw something red! It was my mature tulip plant that keeps company with my peonies! I have got to take a picture of this lone Tulip Plant with three flowers coming in bloom! So that is what I did to share with you!
If you are gardener you will understand these pictures. They are filled with hope, beauty and anticipation. I hope you will follow me through my 2012 Gardening Season. It is going to be a great year!
