We are a long way ahead here in southern Ontario. We had no daffodils and very
few tulips for the Mount Albert Hort. Society show last week ( I had some in
good shape that I had planted in January but couldn't get there in time to
enter), but we do have a good crop of iris ( for next months show when they
will all be gone) and I expect the peonies will be over and done with by then
as well. Will probably have a good crop of lilies to show-but their classes are
set for the July and August show. And unfortunately the weeds are just as far
ahead as the rest of the plants.
