My pansies which are actually two years old have had a fantastic spring. I am of the opinion, if you buy pansies in the fall, and they live over winter, they will be twice the size in the spring. These pansies I bought last spring, and they managed to survive last summer (moderate temperatures) into the fall and over winter (moderate temperatures) and into this spring. Probably the most robust pansies I have ever had.
All my roses have bloomed the first bloom of the season and are beginning to go again. As a rose connoisseur I am not particularly impressed by my roses due in large part that my worthless silver maple shades them too much, so later this year I will be hacking away at the tree to see if that helps their shape. I use an organic rose fertilizer which I apply every month, and cotton burr compost.
The strawberries we have already started to harvest. But the newest addition to our garden has been Noah’s handpicked grow box. He has become a pretty serious gardener. He has planted tomatoes in his grow box. We shall see.
