waiting for spring






Snow is melting slowly .It will take long time to melt 3-4ft of snow. I have garden show next week and I am hoping for warm weather.All my pants are still covered .



At least at home and my little greenhouse spring arrived early .First time in my life Scabiosa Caucasica germinated over 80%.Tomato seedlings having first true leave.I seeded about 17-18 heritage varieties .Some really odd like Green sausage or Purple plum or Black Cherry .The last one is my favorite .

starting seeds




We had lots and lots of snow in early December and I had no time to cover all my plants.Then in January most of snow melted so I had to cover my pots.
I am relay enjoying winter dough .I am caching up with reading and last week I started some seeds.MY Escobaria had 3 seed capsules last year .Very odd ,they where soft , full of seeds and gelatin like substance .After 3,4 weeks all that dried out and I did and up with lots of little seeds .They germinated and now they are the size of sunflower seeds. It will take 2 years before planting them all outside.Lots of seeds are popping up. Centauria rupestris germinate in obandece and its growing like weed .Its makes me happy because lots of people ask for it.I really need to have a big greenhouse.Maybe next year.
