Garden puttering …
I can’t believe how nice the weather has become. It’s been quite warm here in Toronto this week. Well the last few days were. Todays a little cooler at only 9 Celsius, but it did reach 19 c (66.2 F) yesterday I believe.
I didn’t get outside to do anything with the garden yet, but Chris spent some time outside on Monday. Raking the grass and picking up debris that had littered the lawn and garden beds over the winter. It’s amazing how many little scraps of paper etc get stuck in plants and on the lawn over the winter months when you live on a busy and windy street.
I think I keep waiting to feel better to get outside, but I think if I actually went outside and started puttering around in the garden the act of being out there doing stuff would make me feel better.
Maybe I will go out there and putter around for a bit. I’ll bring my pruners out. I don’t think I’ll prune the roses yet, but certainly I can begin to cut down and remove some stems from the dead top growth of the perennials.
Have any of you started to work on your garden now that Spring has arrived? If you have, what plants are beginning to grow?
