I had nurtured every leaf before that in Arkansas. One woman's weed is another woman's treasure, right?<br /><br />Well, dang. I wish we'd surveyed the yard last week. I will enjoy your garden vicariously, I think. I'll be back soon - maybe with more WF bread!

In Ohio I fought red-root pigweed, lambs' quarters, and nutgrass. Here, I fight everything, including a few things I planted myself, unaware that in this climate they would grow like, well, weeds.

The wild strawberries are not quite so prolific.<br /><br />No sign of spring here yet, but I can see the buds on my prunus mume trees. They typically flower in February, but we've had a cold winter so far. I wonder if that will set them back.Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10910555607797611279noreply@blogger.com
