Spring Garden-It's time for show and tell

[Gulfstream]

Giant Iris are showing off daily now.

this patch of jonquils(daffodils) just started blooming. It always means spring is around the corner. When I bought the property this patch stretched out hundreds of feet. When we tore down the farmhouse and rebuilt, the landscape was re-graded and covered up thousands of bulbs. I could probably thin it out considerably but we have so many around the yard already. There are several varieties mixed in there.

It’s asparagus time! The purple variety will be ready to pick in a day or two.

It’s that time of year again. Finally warm enough to start planting in KY. Lots of work ahead of us but this is a start.

12 yards of mulch delivered



One flower bed weeded and mulched today. Working on others.





Garden was tilled for the last time by @Seedy before we plant this week.



I’ve been collected Lowes clearance plants for the last month. They were all 50% off. They’ve had to be babied through the cold temps. Now it’s time to get them all planted in their pots and hung on the porches and driveway.




This stump was leftover from a storm. Since the center was hollow I decided to make it a planter. We will probably cut it down but for now I like it.

That looks like way too much work

I’ve posted this before, but every year I have a rose that seems lay low, completely dormant, having grown into a jasmine vine along a fence I have, only to get inspired each spring when the jasmine decides to bloom and produce a flower of its own. This is year eight of this occurrence and makes for a great picture.

This memory popped up on FB from 14 years ago. This has happened twice where we’ve had lake front property for a day or 2. Unfortunately 14 years ago I had planted the garden the week before. A total loss and had to replant.
