peonies are one of the early signs of spring. the crowns send out new growth and if you are lucky like us, the seed heads you left on the plants last year drop seeds all over and new plants sprout in your lawn.
darry gathered a bunch of them and relocated them to a different area of the yard and in a year or two, we may have flowers.
grape hyacinth
peach blossoms
pink hellebores
we have filled all of the garden beds with plants or seeds and now we wait for the chance to harvest the vegetables. the large plants are those that overwintered. from the bottom-walking onions, left-kale, top right-red cabbage and center right-red russian kale.
on the top is the kale which was grown from seeds given to us by the folks at
long hungry creek farm which is the farm run by jeff poppen, the barefoot farmer. the bottom is a close up of the red russian kale.
red cabbage
and one of our favorites, lilacs.
