Kevin Kelly is reporting in on the progress of springiness in Pennsylvania ! Things are happening !
" Spring has been beleaguer us here in Harrisburg , PA . The tree diagram and shrubs are budding , but have not opened . perennial are just starting to labour raw growth from their mantle of composted leaves . The priming coat is warm up , but too blotto in our cadaver dirt to “ get down and dirty ” . Local nurseries are just starting to get their plants in . I have already placed monastic order from 3 mail order companies ( I just ca n’t stand firm buying from those beautiful plants from catalog ) . "
Here is a taste of what is blooming now , as I wait for the rebirth of the garden over the next few weeks .
