Spring on the modern side

A look at a modern spring planting.

Early spring chores

We're all familiar with spring cleaning, and how it applies to the garden as well,

Nothing cleans up a garden after a long winter than a fresh layer of mulch 

Also on the chore list was a planting of Arborvitae shrubs

It is a good Idea to get some of these early chores done as soon as you can.

Gardeners World episode 2 2019

It's starting to look like spring

Men with flowers

Not really a need to say much here. It is what it is.

The frozen truth

The Ice storm

Recently here in Michigan we had an "Ice Storm" that covered the garden in about a inch of 

ice

The garden took on a whole new look, I couldn't resist taking some photo's

Though schools were closed, and roads were dangerous to drive on, there was a "Winter Wonderland" feel to the garden

I know a lot of people are ready for spring, but winter may still have some tricks up it's sleeve.

The truth is that it's still winter , so sit back and relax.
