Restarted a lot of my seedlings last week and got some tomato sprouts. Roses are very happy. Potatoes are strong and green. Bring on the summer :)

Wildly fluctuating temps are NOT making my wee tomatoes happy. Lost almost half my crop so far. Also not happy me.

Planted a whole bed of yukon gold and norland red potatoes today. The yukons are always a favorite but I'm eager to try the norland variety, they look scrumptious!

I need to change my gardening specialty to chickweed. I'd be the best gardener in the world! :P

Did a massive planting today, tomatoes, peppers, and bunches of flowers. The weather is looking to cooperate with nice temps and sunny so hopefully everything will sprout nicely :)
