62 and sunny. Rain later.
Today's Weather in Your Garden - 41
snow is really melting here!
The high today was 57---walked 2 miles behind the dam--will only do that on weekends when people are around---too secluded otherwise----there was still some snow back there, but not much---we have spots left, but should go after the rain. Cleaning out the garden, Victor! Oooh, how I wish I could!
Just in from some more cutting back and cleaning up. Overcast now, but still warm. 61.
Starting to rain lightly. We need a good soaking to get rid of the remaining crappy snow and wash off the salt.
No rain yet..hit 72 but 61 right now and cloudy
i was nice out there today - still snow in the backyard - was able to trim all the jm's today
How much trimming do you do? Just dead wood and crossing branches, etc?
Brought my potted roses out of the garage and pruned them - the leaf buds were about to open!
Absolutely fabulous weekend. I took the plants I had started inside and put them out on the blacktop driveway for a few hours to start toughening them up.
We were all teased though. Way too early to expect this to be the norm.
Of course - but on warm sunny days, it is great to take the little plants out.
BTW the daffodils on the terrace are emerging. Last year they looked fabulous! Alas, last year was a very stressful year, so not much in the way of photographs. I hope the daffs put on a good show this year.
I wasn't complaining!
i'll post some pic's when i get a chance to take them - did more trimming of the CQ out front and the one in back although that one is still in snow - i also cleaned out all the dead branches - the bloodgood out back had a LOT of dead branches - it did not do well last year - some folks (david) on the jm site think it is deceased - i think it got wet feet from all the rain and all the added soil i put in the bed made it lower to the surrounding plants - i will dig it up and raise it this spring and hope for the best.
Try beating on it!
In the 50s & more melting--no sign of flower buds on snowdrops now that they are cleared of snow again. It's too late, I don't think flowers this year. the daffs in front of our roadside stone wall are showing more green. because of the wall, they are earlier than our others. Freezing rain & sleet predicted for the morning. 1-3" of snow for the afternoon--Yum!
43 now and they said we can get thunderstorms... going up to 47 supposed to rain for most of the day
not loving that day 10

Beautiful, Celeste. Is that the oak?
43 and raining.
Yes it's the Oak, took some hits in the ice storm.
I wanted to do some transplanting so of course its raining and the temp will drop from 44-32 today with snow and rain mixed.
You know the kind, not a big threat.
I checked the reservoire for the fountin to see if it needed water and its full and there is a frozen chunk that cant be broken.
I'll let that job pass for a few more weeks,then bail it out down to three inches.
they are talking about 5 inches of the white stuff here today.
Snow AGAIN! It was supposed to start as rain & started as snow. We are on the line between 1&3" or 4-6". DH went out & topped up our larder instead of the usual Monday shopping.
Sorry to hear about your snow Iris. Its just cold here-in the 40's. No snow pedicted, but it's only March. We had snow in April for the baseball season before.
Snow has stopped, supposed to comence again this afternoon. Melting tomorrow? I hope so.
we got a quarter inch if that its snowing and the sun is shining lol strange weather
after such a nice weekend of tshirts and bbq lol
cant wait for more of that
It's snowing again! And it's sticking to the ground!
We had snow most of the day, but only a small accumulation on the grass---nothing on the roads---but we went one town to the north, & snow on the road---very slippery stuff, because of moisture. Now the sun is out, but still 35, & raw---March, for sure!
its has stopped my way and now its melting
What a downer after the past two days. Overcast and 42.
