Where is spring?
 

I need to start putting stuff in the ground, but it's been really cold.
Tomorrow I might put some pea seeds in the ground though, they don't mind
the cold. But I have my sugar maple arriving tomorrow and no clue where to
put it...was hoping to put it in the ground, but I got a big enough pot for
it. I have filled up all my peat pots already, so I'm moving onto the small
plastic pots I have, thoroughly cleaned out yogurt containers, anything I
can find...I have WAAAAAAAY too many seeds compared to the planting
containers I have...I am grateful to Seed Savers though, because of the info
they have on the back of their seed packets. I did not know corns and melons
will cross-pollinate with other corns or melons, so that will definitely
change my plan for what goes in the ground where. I just wish I could get
rid of some of the pine trees around here, because it's kinda hard to find
good spots that have enough sun. Plus I am sick of having to having to rake
up pine needles/cones 3 out of 4 seasons a year...

Victoria, zone 5a(but would almost kill to be zone 7)

Heh, zone 6 and it snowed this weekend.

The snowdrops are still in bloom and the daffodils are barely poking up.

We had what, one warmish day in March?

I did see the first turkey vulture of the year yesterday...

Here near Terre Haute Indiana, we had snow showers and thunderstorms all in
the same day. It is an awful feeling to want to be out in the dirt and just
too darn cold.
