I’m looking so forward to spring. We’ve been having spring-like weather and I worked in my garden yesterday. These tips will come in handy as I’m preparing my yard for spring and summer. I especially like the one about plant diseases and how to identify them. These are all great tips for spring gardening.
Flowers are my favorite thing to garden. I enjoy starting from seed even though it takes forever. Our winter has been so mild this year, we’ve set record high temps and everything is trying to bloom already. I’m trying to be patient before we begin our spring flower gardening around here. We could go ahead and trim the boxwoods now. So much to do!
Great tips and ideas. I wish I had enough space to try these ideas. #HomeMattersParty
