Well, I made my first garden purchase of the year on Saturday. Two six packs of pansies. Bought them after listening to a pruning workshop. (Maybe there's some hope that I can repair some past hack jobs on a couple of my shrubs.) A beautiful pale yellow and a raspberry red. Problem is, they're still in their 6-packs, sitting on top of the pot they're supposed to be in. I haven't done much in the garden yet this year, other than walking around. Did trim the dead tops off the plants in the flower garden. (I leave the dead heads on over the winter to feed the birds.) Also trimmed back the lemon thyme. Lots more jobs to come. The lilac buds are really swelling, the scilla is out with its beautiful blue flowers and the day lilies are an inch or two high. The explosion of activity isn't far away...
