I don't know about you, but I am LOVING the warm weather!
When I first saw the forecast for this week, I thought to myself, "This is it! Time to get growing!"
So I left work Monday and went to the local greenhouse, Wiethop.
They had an excellent selection, despite being VERY busy over the weekend.
Thankfully, I got there in time to claim the last Black Beauty Zucchini seedling they had for the day.
After loading up a flat of vegetable seedlings and a few of their inexpensive flowers, (Seriously, where else can you get quality Zinnias for 80 cents?!), I forced myself into the checkout line.
I could spend a LOAD of money there.
They have gorgeous flowers and a huge selection of perennials. (Annuals too, I am just in the market for perennials for the front yard!)
I also stopped by a local farmer's produce stand to pick up some Everbearing Strawberries that i had seen last week.
The good thing about these is that they were taken from already producing plants so they should produce this year. (I asked)
As soon as I got home and let Dolly out, it was go time.
I had to re-till what we had done a few weeks ago, and believe me, my arms are definitely feeling it.
Anyways, the garden was planted Monday night, and the flowers went in last night.
