I've been cultivating wild violets as ground cover as we continue to eliminate grass. It's working!

Was about to head out to do some gardening - it's only mid40s F but with the sun shining it's actually not bad - and then looked up to see that it's SNOWING

Plum tree is on the cusp of blossoming! hope these survive the rain forecasted for the coming days

The first daffodils are just starting to bloom

The rain finally stopped enough for us to get out and drag all the branches to the curb - it's coming up on free brush chipping week in the city and I didn't to want to miss that! Fruit trees have all been pruned and invasive mantis egg ootheca disposed of. hopefully few if any remain and they will not be such an enemy of the monarchs this year.

Squirrels! Having a snack in the peach tree.

sunny #daffodils multiply each year.

clipping dead blooms and sprinkling with bone meal after blooms really helps #bulbs spread.

On a cold November day, time to bottle up dried garden #herbs like thyme, tarragon, marjoram and rosemary. #herbgarden #michigangarden #gardening
and now, these #tulips (slawa) are in full bloom while #lupines are coming along nicely. #gardening #MidwestGarden #MichiganGarden
