Spring is in the ground

I was surprised that all my discarded coriander seeds are now sprouting outdoors. Also my venus flytrap is putting forth a bud.

Crisp and cool

No I'm not talking about my new AeroGarten lettuce. It's the weather to which I refer. Even though it was treacherously windy I snapped a pic on the bridge.

Easter

My Easter included some time cultivating; it was nice to be outside for a while, participating in the spring.

Gorgeous weather

I really don't have the words to describe how lovely is an early spring day in yonder Carolines, nor will a crummy cellphone picture do it justice.

Fortunately I was able to get outside and enjoy it, picking up gardening supplies at yonder Hardware Hut and tackling a couple of repotting/planting projects. Thanks to Red Icculus I got some Hydroton clay pellets and used these as a top dressing for my wild strawberry and lemon tree, which moved into larger dwellings today. The clay pellets look very cool; if they provide a bit of moisture management insurance all the better.

This stuff is getting expensive though. I just dropped $41 on pots and implements.
