Almost but not quite Spring; just a few more days until the calendar tells us it’s official. My forsythia is getting ready.

We are certainly missing the annual huge Seattle Northwest Flower & Garden Show/Festival, held every year in early spring but sadly cancelled this year due to COVID-19. I am very excited about things getting back to normal and gatherings opening up, not yet, but soon. Wear your mask and get vaccinated!

We’ve had three days of really nice weather—dry and not too cold. Time to start peas outside! I like to soak them for a few hours before they go in the ground. So exciting to be planting something for spring.

Hellebore flowers bloom wonderfully early. They usually have very nodding flowers, but this one is face-up!
