Mar.8 I keep on watching and watching and watching. Well the Coleus already have there 2nd leaves and I have tansplanted them to their own little pots and they are doing just fine. I think about 60 of them. yicks!
I still keep hoping to see my Sea Holly but they are not showing themselves yet. Boy am I impatient or what? I just thought of the watch kettle that never boils…hope that doesn’t apply here. I went and started some more today in a moistened coffee filter inside a ziplock bag. Which will appear first?
The Impatience are divided. Half are still not to be seen while the other half are doing well and a couple have just got their second set of leaves. Hmmmmmm.
MY Delphinium babies have just begun to pop out after having put them under an old heat pad. Yeah for you guys, keep on keeping on.
Now you Petunias, some of you are up and some not and some that were up have fallen down. Maybe I shouldn’t have listened to that blurp that said to get them under the lights ASAP after they had sprouted. maybe I should have waited another day or two. I have already planted some more seeds.
you Phlox guys are doing well. If you keep going like you are, I will be going crazy finding room before the final frost has gone.
Now my indoor hostas, you guys are still sleeping yet but I have you on the nice warm blanket which I’ve heard that you like and just in case I put my last seeds in the coffee filter/ziplock bag. Come on guys pleeeese!
The watch kettle does boil eventually, doesn’t it?

You gals are too funny! I am having such a chuckle. My babies are tucked in nice and warm and yes stretching toward the light and as I look out the window there is a raging snowstorm. Wow.

Yah here too … snowed all day. Fortunately for the amount of snow that “looked” like it was coming down, we didn’t get too bad of an accumulation.

I should have taken a picture of my truck…. definitely a foot of snow on top of it!
Where we walked this morning is now in a 3 foot snowbank… beautiful!
And it’s still snowing! Been 12 hours of heavy snow so far
