Preparing for summer? Winter isn't through yet.

There's a blizzard passing through right now!!!



So far as plants are concerned, spring is not a calendar date, & more to
do with latitude.

A. E. Bowles when queried "When does Spring commence?" said, in Norway,
June 1st.

But added that meteorologically, it is when the average daily temperature
reaches 48 degrees F. In my garden, it really looks like spring is just
about here.
