Spring!







I love this time of year, minus the pollen! I love getting out and pulling weeds, cleaning out the flower beds, going to garden centers to look at what is new, walking without a coat, seeing the flowers bloom and anticipating summer. What I hate about this time of year is the up and down temperatures and the storms. I bought my first plant of the season, a red Mandevilla. I just couldn't pass it up at the flea market this weekend. I am already getting the planting bug, I have seeds and build to plant, more weeds to pull and a front yard to plan. We had all the bushes dug up 2 years this summer and we have to plan what we are going to put in. We need to move all the rocks and build 2 small retaining walls, and choose drought tolerant plants. I just hope my feet and back make it through he whole season. Yeah the sun is out today so I can go dig up dandelions!
