Category: a new year | Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2008 8:17 pm

here we are, two months into the new year, and i can't wait for the winter to disappear!.....have ordered some nice flowers for my new front garden, (i am running out of room in the back yard) and it is a spot which get no direct sun..not quite sure how i'm going to do it, but with plants on the way, (probably arrive in april) i must make up my mind!
I had bought some bulbs in the fall, and neglected to put them in right away, so i actually got them in around the first of the year (i could still dig in the ground), just in time, too....after that, the weather went downhill, and has been cold and frozen ever since.....i know it's early, but i'm always on the look out for the crocus, daffodils, and muscari to be peeking their tips out of the ground.....
I also bought some canas for my backyard....had them a few years ago, and they didn't over winter well, and i wasn't able to revive them....i'll give them one more shot.....

hopefully...third time is a charm for this blog entry...lol

I know how you feel, I'm the same. Good luck with your cannas. I hope you'll remember to share your back yard with us when the time comes.

I've been ripping myself out of the stores this week trying to wait another week before I purchase some dahlias. Man it is hard to take it easy for another 3 weeks before the danger of frost is almost gone in my area. Man I thought I would get better with time but I am just as bad each year.
