Warming Up

Hard to believe that it's been just over a month since my last post. May buzzed by in a blur as I scrambled to keep the plants warm and through some very cold temps. June has been slightly better, but here we are at June 10th and temps were again in the low thirties. I am heading out this morning to get my deck containers planted with plants that have been patiently sitting out there for the past few weeks. The veggie starts will get planted too and seeds started for peas and beans. The peppers and tomatoes will go into large containers in the sunniest location on the deck...they should take off as temps warm up. The gardens have been loving the rain, but it's warming up and time to start watering. Well into June and the sprinklers will go on today for the first time this season! Will put down some fertilizer on the lawn first and then water. Warming up...Finally! Time for the perennials to start their delayed but inevitable show of color.
