Update: I finished the raspberries! Planted lettuce, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage and some flowers.

Considering, less than a month ago, my garden was covered in 5 inches of snow, I think it looks pretty good.

Bravo Catalina, :frow

Your garden is looking really good, especially after your long winter. It never ceases to amaze me just how quickly the plants grow once they settle in & get going. :celebrate Let's hope we don't get any late frosts. Where I live we can still get them in early June -- Eeeeek !! I keep my rolls of floating fleece at the ready ( it's my dearest friend -- isn't that a sad statement)? :lol: :lol: :lol:

HAPPY GARDENING THIS WEEKEND :tools

Awesome! You are on a roll. See, you came on strong and spring was ready for you. That actually seems to be such a huge change in season very quickly for you actually? Looking back it doesn't seem as long as I'm sure it felt for you. :)

Thanks for the encouragement! Whenever I feel like giving up I think of all you TEG people! It really helps me to keep going.

It is amazing to see the changes in the garden, in only one month. I never realized how quickly our seasons change here.

I have some flowers blooming!

Hattie you be careful we dont want you passing out...I have a problem if it is too hot also but I dont pass out at least not yet anyway... when it is really hot I wait till the sun starts to go down behind the trees or get up really early to work before the sun gets too high...
