I planted them late fall, later than normally advised and with the far
harsher than normal winter on the east coast, expected they had died.


2 weeks ago we saw buds. Last week we saw a few greening bits. Today,
literally overnight one burst into bloom and the other looks like it will
tomorrow. Grin, YEAH!


Yeah, fruit trees are beginning to blossom in the NE.


Heheh well it's my only 2 fruit trees and the only apples anyplace nearby so
the neighbors are all wandering up to make a happy glance (friendly
neighbors, not a problem!).

Lettuce busting loose too.


Wow, you grow lettuce in your bra! LOL


Snicker, container garden. I'm trying spinach and broccoli too for the
first time. I have 6 tomatoes in a container and 2 in the yard. The Sweet
William is burting with glorous flowers too!

I'm thinking to put in some lilac along the side of the house.
