READY to PLANT

"Show me your garden and I will tell you what you are...." -Alfred Austin
The greenhouse is stuffed with flats.
Doves sit on the cherry tree and flap 
Pasque Flower is blooming late. Almost finished and ready to turn to fluff.
Porch pots are in place. Coleus, Impatiens, lobelia,  all manner of shade plants.
The patio is ready for Rhodochiton, petunias, oodles of geraniums, Verbeena, a myriad of  cosmos. On sale no less. Trailing sweet peas here and there.
"Fertilizer does no good in a heap, but a little spread around works miracles all over " -R. Sheridan
Front bed stuffed with knee hi sweet peas, cosmos, roses, and the few dahlias that survived the winter.
Dahlias for the hill. Ready to be set free.
Cucumbers. Maybe. Pumpkins most definitely.
And the hill ready and waiting.

"To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow." - Audrey Hepburn

Mend the old bench so it doesn't fall apart.
Watch the rain fall.
See the Cat Plants make their move........
Fluff up the ferns.
The Cat Plant is set. Pots are ready. One week to go. Get ready. Get set. Go........
"A garden is a delight to the eye and solace to the soul. " -Saadi
