Flowers

I saw yellow tulips in the neighbor's yard, against the nice, sunny south side of their garage. Wooo hooo for spring! My columbine, sedum, and daisies that I planted last year are all looking spiffy and healthy. Oh boy! The red tulips planted by the previous owner are coming up thicker and stronger than last year, and the leaves are 7-8" high now.

But I still don't see even the tiniest hint of the daffodils I planted last fall. Maybe they're very late daffodils? Maybe I will have to replant next fall.

Somewhere underneath last fall's leaves I managed to find last summer's compost. I dug some out, added it to part of a raised bed, and plunked down some spinach, lettuce, beet, and kohlrabi seeds. I should have salad fixin's just in time for Andrew to get his braces on and for Paul to be done with spring semester.
