Re: where did everyone go?!?

I could be wrong but I always thought they had to be in by mid Feb in order for them not to burn up too soon... I have made it before and they do great.... but most of them time I think I am too late and don't get them planted.

I have always planted my snow peas in mid-March, even though we have a
very short spring. I guess I always had this feeling they would freeze
plus I just haven't been ready to get them in the ground before that.
But I'll try putting them in this weekend and see what happens, it would
be great to get a longer season out of them.
Lots of freeze burned foliage at my place too, it is really starting to
become more evident as the rest of the yard greens up.

It is 60 here this morning.  I got my snow peas planted last week so
maybe I will get some before it gets too hot.  I have potatoes ready to
plant but my mom always said plant on March 17th.
We are suppose to have bad tornado like storms this evening with high
winds then Saturday is suppose to be good again.  I am hoping to go to
OKC to a House and Garden show tonight while the weather is not good
then home to work in the yard tomorrow.
My husband got a pre-emergent put down on the grass...  and the extra
acre.
We have to be diligent about pre-emergent to keep down the grass burrs.
I hope we get some rain on it tonight.
So much to do.... I did get out and cleaned the old burned foliage from
the Lenten Roses (Helleborus orientalis).  I hope they get to bloom this
year.
I can see daffodil foliage but still very short.  I need to cut back
some overgrown prowis castle artemesia.  I like to leave it as winter
cover but now it gets to looking pretty bad.
I wish everyone a great weekend to work in our gardens!

Everybody's quiet I guess. Nothing happening here in So Cal except we
did have a bit of rain last night - probably less than half an inch -
but I'm sure the plants welcomed it anyway. It was a cold storm too,
this morning all our car doors were frozen shut.
My onion plants showed up yesterday so I will be planting this weekend



if the weather cooperates. And I have a couple tomato seedlings up
already. More daffodils are starting to bloom which only accentuates
all the clean-up work I need to do out front - ah well, what would
life be without a list of things to do?

I was gone all day.  I'd rather have been outside.  Tomorrow I visit
the accountant. <YECCH> zem
