Planting Season

In Minnesota, the first sign of spring leading into summer is the proliferation of outdoor sales of plants, flowers and herbs.  I've had a wonderful week, wandering from store to store! 

 On April 19th we had our last big snow storm, followed by days of relentless rain.  Now, look at all the greenery!

    Yes, it does look like spring has arrived in the northern part of the country.

    I like these photos, Kate. They bring back fond memories of when I had a hard and could plant flowers and veggies. Now I go to farmers' markets for my flowers and veggies, or to the grocery store during the winter months.

    I got back in CT on May 12 and have always used May 15 as the first planting date for annual flowers. So, everything is planted now. Though there are forecasts for possible freezing tonight in the western hills. I think West Hartford will be OK.
