Daffodils are up a few inches here as well! I have a few bags of them in the garage that I might get planted this next week. Finally, my knee pain is lessening to the point where I can walk the yard. I can honestly say the pain before surgery was much less than after.
I'm looking at partial knee replacement in the next year, but the hyaluronic shots are kicking in so that will hopefully keep me going through this gardening season.
In the next month, several rose orders, a willow order, and a huge tree order will all land here. The trees are the little ones from forestry, but there's 150 of them. In a few years, I'll have a wonderful hedge composed of wild plum and old garden roses! Won't that be nice!
The willows are cuttings that I will root. Someday, I would like to try weaving a willow fence. Vermont Willow Nursery has so many lovely varieties, and so many cool ideas for how to use them.
Even though weeding is how I tore up my knee, I think I'm going to get a scuffle hoe out and get started on the early spring weeds in the flower beds. i have lots of seeds I want to put down, so I had better get out there!
