The spring begins. We seeded a few cold tolerant things yesterday and opened the greenhouse today so you see it's very early in our season. We live in a zone 3, cold and planting out is the end of May. I garden in very reduced gardens, cut way back over the last 5 years and it's always hard in the spring when you want to plant everyone and too much of everything but I remember I have to work it all summer and that slows me down some. Hubby and I garden here alone and it's mostly become a food garden while years ago it was mostly perennials. Time and age tends to change the interests.
A big warm welcome Summerdaze from Wisconsin. I know what you mean about trying to cut back. It can be very hard when you love planting stuff. Looking forward to seeing your gardens or just what you and your hubby have been up to.

Hi Summerdaze, welcome to GardenStew from Chelmsford, MA, USA. Zone 3 still sounds cold. I can imagine plants in their little green jackets trying to stay warm.
