It is in the 70s today and I believe this has been the warmest winter we have ever had in Southwest Ohio. The daffodils are starting to bloom in the garden and I cut a few for the house. The sun is shining and I have cleaned up the raised beds again since the weather is so terrific today. The garlic I planted in November is sprouting and I predict it will most likely be harvested earlier than mid July. Flowers seeds have been ordered and should be arriving next week. Of course I cannot sow those outside for a couple of months. As a side note, one of my carry over amaryllis bulbs is just starting to bloom for its second year. I can often get them to re-bloom, but they have I mind of their own when that happens even though I follow the directions for getting them to re-bloom at Christmas. I will post a photo once it fully blooms.
Oh my-those daffs are gorgeous. Such nice color, after a winter of none!
ReplyDeleteSue they add such joy and today we had snow flurries. That is just the way the weather is around here. However, it has really been a mild winter overall. Thanks for visiting my blog.
