Even though we're still 3 weeks away, the beautiful Spring clock is ticking. Today in the meadow I got an update on the progress of some of our plants. The daffodils that Maya planted are really popping up nicely! They are so hardly- the snow didn't seem to phase them. Foxglove is on it's way to giving us those gorgeous blooms again too. And... I need help with a mystery- any gardeners out there know what the last two pictures here are? I planted seedlings in the meadow last fall- and these seem to be coming out strong from the wildflower mix. It kind of looks like Rosemary- but I'm certain I didn't plant any down there. Perhaps we'll get a surprise when it blooms!
Smells
Kathryn Worth
Through all the frozen winter
My nose has grown most lonely
For lovely, lovely, colored smells
That come in springtime only.
The purple smell of lilacs,
The yellow smell that blows
Across the air of meadows
Where bright forsythia grows.
The tall pink smell of peach trees,
The low white smell of clover,
And everywhere the great green smell
Of grass the whole world over.

Not sure what those are. Look like some sort of bulb plant. Maybe you'll have green onions growing amoung the flowers-ha! Fun to see the video of CA! Looks like you had a blast!:)
