Just picked - baby bok choy and chives.
These will go into an Oriental soup tonight!
It won't be long before I'm picking lettuce, too.
Gardening for Granny!

Friday Shots
A single tulip is blooming. I had purchased these tulips last spring and when they were done blooming, I transplanted them into the garden. There may be one more to bloom in a day or two.
I have lots of forget-me-nots but this one is on the hill with a southern exposure so it's in bloom now while the others have yet to set their buds.
All the ferns are sending up their fiddleheads.
Down at the creek near the driveway the skunk cabbage is in all its glory.
Looking upstream there's not as much of it.
I love how the sun shines through the leaves.
The owl house remains empty. Maybe next year.
Almost time to harvest some bok choy and lettuce.

You Know It's Spring ....
... when
... hearts are bleeding;
[These are the first of the bleeding hearts to bloom and it's a volunteer growing in the path no less.]
... when
... hosta leaves unfurl;
... when
... there's a red tinge on the trees;
...when
... snow peas have broken the soil;
...when
... lettuce is green;
...when
...spinach two leaves appear;
...when
...blueberries bud;
...when
...eggs appear in the pond;
...when
... I spot the first dandelion;
...when
...multiflora rose in the woods turns green; and
... when
...the hummingbird migration map shows that the hummers have been here and moved on.
