So here we sit on a glorious
60 degree no wind
February Sunday afternoon.
It’s oh so tempting
To do something
Anything
In the garden.
But wait
There is still a bit more winter to come.
In a few weeks we can start planting
Cool season vegetable crops
Here in zone 7a.
All those cabbage teenagers
Will get happily planted
In there permanent homes.
But till then we need to calm down.
And wait just a bit longer.
So until then
You will find me in one of four
Hellebore patches
Cutting off the dead leaves
Making room for the very first
Harbingers of spring.
Welcome back.
Gail
In My Garden 
Thank you Gail!! Gary and our son Tyler are our family gardeners. I enjoy sharing your blog with them!!
Thanks Judy. I bet they could teach me a few things.
This time of year requires patience, and that has never been one of my virtues. It is a struggle, but I think about leggy plants. 🙂
