I have done the spring fertilizing over the past few days. I used 120 pounds of generic 10-10-10 and 100 pounds of Holly-tone on the acidophiles, mostly evergreens. I used some bone-meal on spring bulbs that put out foliage but don’t flower, the phosphorus in the ground up bones is supposed to help that.
I planted a forsythia, Forsythia x intermedia, ‘Lynwood Gold’ in a bare spot along the road where there are lots of other forsythias to make it feel at home.
We had dinner at Parma in the city with Linda and Bob and Char and Roger during the week.
New blooms: crocus, vinca minor.
Crocus yesterday just starting to smile.
Vinca minor with a few early blooms.
Today those crocus are laughing.
Here's a better pic of the snowflake. You can see the similarities to and differences from the snowdrops I posted a few weeks ago.
