    Just look what happened today. I have more rose buds happening in the greenhouse on my little starter plants from Fall.

    This was potted outside last year and I wanted to save it for this Spring. Don't know what it is but I like it.

    You can't see it but these are the starts I did last Summer for the hidden gardens. As the snow went away today I am beginning to see little sprouts on these.

    That white stuff if still all over the place is still a foot deep in most areas of my property. We had a very warm day yesterday and after all the melting it was still that bad.

    Sjoerd, You had better watch your mouth or my gang here will come and git you with a willow whip and give you a licken you would remember for the rest of your life.

    Better yet, we will pack all of it up and ship it out to you and pour it all over your house.....

    That'll fixem.. gurls....

    Ah yes, I remember now. A woman gave me all her leftovers last Spring. I planted them all over the place but brought them into the greenhouse in the Fall. So now I see there are about 4 or 5 of them beginning to bloom in there. Wow, Does that mean I have a good jump on Spring???

    Gad...all that white stuff dumped on my crib....I'm calling up the Big Guy for warm weather so's it'll all melt fo it hits my roof. A guy has 't fight snow with far, y'know.
