Spring Has Sprung!!!

If it were not so misty and drizzly outside today, I would take some pictures of my garden coming to life. I'm so excited I can barely stand it! So instead, today I did my first "planting" and also set up my seed starting nursery in the basement. Bring on Spring....I'm soooooooo ready!



Here is my brand new blueberry plant! Derrek loves blueberries so much, so why not grow them? We also have strawberries, raspberries, blackberries and gooseberries in the yard.


It may not look like much....but there is life and there will be berries! And all for a $5.00 plant.

The work bench was already here when we moved in. I'm sure the prior owners used it for seed starting since they so kindly left me tons of flats. During the week of March 20th, I'll start my first seeds here. I have a heating mat to make the environment ideal for growing temperature and have a plant UV lamp to provide the light.

Now all that is left to do is decide what exactly I am going to grow!
