Judging from the long term forecast for Calgary, spring is here...finally.
After last weeks cold snap and snow, we thought it would never arrive.
Everything that had popped out survived, even my tulips which were in full bloom.
Our trays and trays and trays of seedlings are growing nicely and today was nice enough to open up the patio doors and let them feel the breeze. I guess I can start hardening them off this week.
I did plant one thing today, even though it's not the May long weekend. That is the rule here in the prairies. I always try to push it a bit and imagine I will be putting stuff in the ground next weekend. For today, I put in the Chippewa Blueberry bush. I am having visions of blueberry pie!
J still has to fight the good fight and get that shrub out of the ground but he needs a chainsaw. Scary! We tried using an axe but it seems that the wood is just too hard and too alive. The axe just bounces off which is even scarier!
