I spent yesterday afternoon under a warm gloomy sky doing a brief check of my beds. Got involved with pulling the tons of stinging nettle, the mystery plant that is apparently very toxic to my animals, and the major task of digging out the old Esperanza that I wanted gone.
Found evidence of poppy seedlings, mystery wildflower seedlings, several amaryllis poking into the leaf litter. My hoop daffodils are strong and green, although I am not sure I will get blooms this year. My native daffodils (I can't remember their name) have made an appearance, and my irises are very healthy.
Half of my lettuce is going to seed, I have cabbages out the wazoo. I harvested my first brussel sprouts ever yesterday, whoop. My heirloom multiplying onions are big and dividing. I was worried about harvesting any because they are so hare to find but now I have plenty to share.
How are your beds doing?
