I am getting so antsy to start seeds. Winter is long for me here in Utah. We have had nice snowfall this year and it is finally melting with the little warmer weather. I love the moisture, I know we need it, but I am so glad to see the soil again.
I gathered seeds from my many Hardy Hibiscus and some of my other favorites last fall. Today I used the Deno method in baggies to (hopefully) sprout them. I am also attempting to start canna, dahlia, and zinnia the Deno method. My favorite flowers are Hardy Hibiscus and Dahlias.
I have ordered new covering for my little greenhouse and will be able to use it in a couple of weeks. It is a homemade 10' by 12' greenhouse and serves me very well to start my seeds and grow out my seedlings until planting time which us usually after the 1st week of May.
My yard is sometimes left so I can care for my house next to me which I have renovated and turned into a vacation rental. I have been able to renovate the yard and it is beautiful from spring to fall. I call that place my full size doll house. I love it.
I am seen out in the yards almost all the time when I am not at work. I really don't like being in the house.
Here are a few pictures of the yard and flowers from last year.
