Here we go - 2019. It's finally Spring here in New England. March 30th started peppers, tomatoes, eggplant and zinnias. Happy Dance.
Love getting my hands back in the soil -- Therapy for the soul. Here's a pic of our greenhouse bench with heated mats. I learned long ago
peppers LOVE warm soil; the heated mats make a huge difference in germination.
The weather this past weekend (4/6th) was absolutely fantastic - 60's. I raked out the flower beds; first time EVER I've been able to rake this early in the season.
I even got a chance to transplant some bearded iris. I know, spring is not the time to divide iris, but this patch is major overdue for dividing.
I have about a dozen eggs in the incubator. White Leghorn, Black Copper Marans, Rose-Comb Rhode Island White and a couple Golden Comets.
Should hatch April 14th.
It's raining and cold today; actually had some snow -- thank goodness it melted soon after hitting the ground.
Heading to Daylily society meeting this weekend. Oh Happy Day. Heidi and Charles from Brown's Ferry daylily gardens will be speaking. Love their flowers.
Well, that's it for today. Just a quick blog to get started for 2019.
Cheers All
