My hydrangea is super happy it's Spring. Nearby I noticed my American Beauty Berry and my Natchez Mock Orange have tiny green buds as well; too tiny to be worth photographing, but I am encouraged. No sign of life on my Night Blooming Jasmine yet.
Today I ordered 10 Jersey Giant Asparagus crowns... excited about that. I need to plot out the best place to plant those, because they live 10-25 years. Years! I remember the family story that mom asked dad for some asparagus plants at the house I grew up in (where they still live) and he planted a quarter of an acre of it. Um, yeah. That's a whole lot of asparagus. So yummy though.
I am miffed with myself that two days in a row I've forgotten my garden wish list at home. I'm trying to remember all the great garden brainstorming I did and all of the (surely fabulous) ideas my neighbors and I came up with, but I'm not having a lot of success. Difficult to order seeds when you can't recall what you wanted! Ay yi yi. I think there were moonflowers involved...
