On Leap Day I leaped into gardening. This must be a harbinger of Spring. Note this jump was just a baby step into gardening, because I’m at least one notch below novice. Neighbors Amy and Shawn, as well as sister Beth, encouraged and advised me through the past year. There is still a lot to learn.
I walked straight through the house after walking, picking up shears on my way to the garden. The tall clump of ornamental grass stalks has been cut down, ready for the new growth. I left a mess, though, which should be raked up.
On the bright side, we picked up some flower seeds the other day. Great patience will be required, waiting for the soil to warm up. Maybe we should hold the packets up near the window when the snow flurries come later in the week.
Yesterday we had an unusual warm, even hot, day here in Michigan. I am ready to for the colors that come with spring.

Anne –
Good idea – maybe the sight of those cheery seed packets will let Winter know it is time to move on. I’m ready for Spring! Enjoy your nice weather while it lasts.

. I’m planning to buy some marigold seeds this week-end so that I can start them indoors.
