Spring is Here
After a killer winter (yes, I am being facetious ) of a fair amount of rain and a few frosts it looks like Spring has arrived. How do I know?
The strawberries are starting to come in:
And the roses are going crazy:
And the rest of the garden:
Broccoli - waiting for enough for one meal
Cabbage - something is sharing it with me, but the damage isn't too bad.
The main bed right now
Gorgeous garlic
Lovely Romaine
Slow growing celery
Sugar snaps - so far I have gotten one - but they sure look nice
Old fashioned peas - have had a few meals from these

How did I miss this?
How did I miss this thread until now? These are the photos I've been looking for!
Thank you, Chopper, for giving us hope that Spring springs eternal. (Or something like that.)

Re: Spring is Here
Oh, man! Strawberries already!
:GREEN:
My strawberry plants won't go in until next week, then I wait . . . . . . .
Oh, well, next year will be a great year for strawberries!
My broccoli is doing well, though! Along with a few others, but I certainly couldn't live off my garden right now.

Re: Spring is Here
Awesome that you have such a growing season over there. I don't know what I'd do if my winter was from Thanksgiving to New Year's...lol.
Now, for a more serious question.....how many squares does my money tree require in my sfg? I am hoping the fertile soil produces a bumper crop this year.

Re: Spring is Here
BBG If you are talking about Money Plant, (Money Tree) also known as Silver Dollar Plant,
final spacing should be about 1 per square foor, as the sowing directions say thin to 12 - 15 inches apart.

Oh, no, I was being completely sarcastic. I was talking about that fictional money tree that supposedly drops it's blooms every time a kid asks his parents for something. Well, that's how it worked in our house.
I hear, if you find one, it's as big as an oak. And, I also hear it blooms year round with monthly bursts right around the time your bills are due. If anyone ever sees one, please take a picture and make sure I get some seeds. I'm sure it grows well in MM.

Re: Spring is Here
Ya got me
When you find one, make sure you save enough seeds for the rest of us.

Chopper,
I am speechless! I love your garden. I am soooooo jealous.
We just got another 8" of snow here in Central Jersey yesterday so it will be awhile for spring to arrive....
