Spring in the Pac NW

It's arrived!!!

Just thought I'd spread the news:

The Oswego plum buds have opened and their tiny flowers are dotting the
understory with motes of white.  The salmonberry buds are green and the
cottonwood buds are swelling in the treetops.  And the tree frogs have
started their evening chorus.

So I dug out my onion flat and planted two packets of seed.  They'll
grow like grass until I can set them out in early April.  Then I planted
a flat of early spring veg: brocolli, cabbage, cauli, lettuce, raddichio
and parsley.  They'll be set out under cover in about a month.  This is
the earliest I've planted since 1981 when I lived at sea level!
