Today, amongst  my household duties and work I managed to prune several plants of which were battered from our Northwest winter. My husband recently had ordered five yards of composted soil, replenishing beds built on rocky ground. Most certainly one of the biggest challenges when growing anything other then that which can only survive in rock gardens. With Spring fast approaching, reclaiming flower beds that have been invaded by weeds and moles becomes my top priority. Wow, there’s a lot of work ahead of me as the seasons change.  We here in the Northwest have such an array of plants that offer spectacular flowers and foliage my excitement continues to grow as winter is about to pass. Yay! If you haven’t clicked on the site of Lisa’s last post I recommend that you do! Watson’s Nursery offers a mini tour and makes me want to shout, “Hey Lisa, next time wait for me!”
