It's SPRING!!!!!!!!!...........but it is also 32 degrees today.......I do love my smartwool, layered under my clothes as I venture outside. You must understand that fashion is very important in the garden realm, for protection, for comfort, and for never knowing who......or what you might encounter.
My palms start itching to get out and make some changes in the ever-changing garden way before it's time to plant, so I do alternative gardening.....on the walls and other places that are in need of a boost of color.
And then comes the foundation of gardening......fixing the Texas clay soil to a more workable, healthy, crumbly condition. With help from my daughter, Jesse and my husband, John, we got one bed completely redone......added some expanded shale and plenty of compost and put our first batch of veggies in......whoohoo!
Usually, gardening is a time for meditative quiet, solitude and contemplation..........but occasionally it can be just the opposite........and that can be equally as pleasurable. Helpers come in all shapes, sizes and forms..........so as I wait for the perennials to peek out and green up, my helpers and I will enjoy this glorious time!
