Gardeners, are you getting excited?
I'm ready for spring! I already have a bunch of starts in the greenhouse, and I'm dying to start the tomatoes and cucumbers.
I am trying celery for the first time this year.
What are your plans?

I can't weight to clean my pond out and make my front garden good again.

I don't do garden stuff but I have a bit of trivia to share. The Amish serve celery as a side dish at a wedding dinner. The Amish are very very secretive regarding marriage plans, so if a girl's family plants a lot of extra celery one spring, there is immediate speculation that a wedding is in the offing. So you should think of young love as you plant your celery.

I've been planting my flower boxes . Put strawberries in one , mints in another , and a lillie plant . I've planted asparagras in a new box this year , but won't see produce until next year . After that , I'll get stalks every year . My Herb box from last year , seems to have survived , for the most part - sweet mint , spearmint , spring onions , chives . The lavender looked kind of dead at first , but some of the branches seem to be reviving . The parsley didn't make it . I've replaced the grapevine that drowned , in all the rain we had last year . My daylillies , that I brought with me , when I moved here , are looking wonderful and healthy . One of the azalia bushes is bloominfg it's little heart out . The weeds are thinking it's a wonderful spring day . Saw some wild violets and clover amoung them .

You must live somewhere warmer than me - I looked at the weather map today in the newspaper and the only place in the U.K . With a black cloud above it, was Ballycastle where I live 2 minutes from the sea . Also the hurricane shifted all the sand on the beach onto the tennis courts and bowling green, that looked quite funny really but its still seriously freezing up here. I will get excited soon as I can - keen gardener here.

This will be a year for soy beans (edmame). We buy non GMO organically sourced seed. Probably play around with some heirloom tomato varities. I shop local farm stands for most things. It help them out and they grow many things better than I do.
