Hold on to those hopes of spring. We woke up to a howling blizzard Saturday morning, and are supposed to get another snowstorm this week. There's only about 2-3 inches on the ground right now, but we're supposed to get another 5. It has been deceptively sunny during the day, still very cold.
I have one little patch of crocuses on the slope that are about 1/2 inch high, but I didn't get any pictures before it snowed again. Just as well.
I'm still debating if I should start any flower seeds this year. With baby coming in April, that will definitely put a damper on any seedling care, probably right when they would need it most. So I'm thinking not, although it would sure be nice to have my own flat of petunias or nasturtiums or marigolds to put out. See, that's part of the problem, though. I have a hard time just doing a few.
Oh well. I guess they're not that expensive to buy, and it would be better (no doubt) to be able to plant them directly, rather than kill them off due to neglect once the little one arrives.
