I'm looking forward to looking out the window and seeing colorful things in bloom. I ordered some plants from Michigan Bulbs that will grow in partial shade.
Also, my orange tree has a lot of new growth showing. Pretty soon I'll get some lettuce mix seeds in my SFG.

Cool. I also have an order pending with Michigan Bulbs. You can find some good deals.

I started some of the lavender seeds last week. The packet says that they may take up to 28 days to germinate. I planted 3 seeds per pot. I also have some tomato and snapdragon seeds. I have more seeds to start, but I couldn't help myself with these.

Haven't even started anything yet; it's been too cold to even turn over the ground once, much less try to grow anything.

My bags of soil are frozen turd solid in our garage and the ground is still under 3-4 feet of packed snow up here in northern Ontario.

The temps have been between 14F (-10C) to -31F (-35C). Too darned cold to even think about starting some seeds.

It's still very cold here but I do plan on getting lettuce and spinach in my garden today. I'm a little early but I will just plant a few

WhodatInMD, wow, that's a lot of planting. I hope it works out for you.

Today, I cleaned up the seedlings that never really germinated and I planted a few new seeds.

I also scored a FREE Julia Child Rose from Michigan Bulbs!! They are giving them away free all day Saturday.

bought some seeds for a friend's birthday gift. Among other things, some green beans that grow purple and turn green when cooked.
I think I'm going to try them. I eat more beans raw and think they'll look neat in a salad.

I love it:>)))
Yesterday 75F so I got all excited, bought onion sets and sunscreen. Right now an ice storms howls through the area. Poor daffodils - they were such a joy outside the office window.
