Re: Tilling when wet/ weather & blooms


Hello Claire,
    Perhaps this coming week will be a bit better. They are forecasting warmer
temps this afternoon than the past two weeks of cool and rainy. We still only
received a bit over an inch of rain here, but will take what we were able to get.
our fingers are crossed that we will be able to get into the main garden and pull
weeds, remove some of the columbine before they take over the garden pushing out
other plants.
    When the weather dropped from the 80's back down to highs of 60's here it did
kick the seed germination back into gear. Some tings had gotten too warm and went
semi-dormant. Now the pans are poppin'. Have one row 4 feet wide and 48 feet long
of hellebore seeds. Will be baby sitting those for 3 to 5 years depending upon
germination this spring.....
