@rosemarya Indeed, Spring is here in this Valley! Recently someone creasted a "trading hub" page for the community, and people are trading starts, plants, all all manner of things, or giving away excess cuttings. It is so awesome to see. I just wish I knew exactly what to do to get a garden going or flowers!

@rosemary, What a lovely sign. Pretty much sums up how I feel in the gardens as well.

This morning I worked in my front beds and planted my first seeds of the season in one bed...coreposis and orange, yellow and white cosmos. While working, a neighbor from a couple of streets over stopped her walk in the street to compliment my blooms and we had a love at-a-distance get acquainted visit. A while later she returned with her husband telling me that she dragged him away from his computer job at home to come see my yard. Wasn't that the nicest lift/?? Sunshine, perfectly still, person-to-person visit....can't get much better than this.
