Spring is in the Air…

Friday, March 23rd, 2007

…and I have the pollen all over the hood of my car and streaming eyes and nose to prove it.  Methinks it’s time for a shot.

Other than the pollen though, I am really glad to see the warmer temperatures.  I bought seed packets over a month ago that I’m anxious to put in the ground.  Giant sunflowers, cosmos, sweet peas, lavendar, mint and parsely just to name a few.  I filled my deck pots and fixed new arrangements for the big urns on my front porch.  I love those wave petunias–very hardy and can take full sun–and put out a lot of deep purple shades.  In a month or so, those babies will be beautiful.  I also put out some strawberries.  This is my first foray into fruit, so we’ll see what happens.

What about you?  Planted anything yet?  Looking forward to planting anything?
