HerbnArts: Dancing with the Butterfly...: " ...Even with all the heat and humidity, the tansy is blooming! You can tell it is the end of the summer. That wonderful herbie green..."
Winds of spring...
...Small tender blades of chive were poking their sturdy heads up in the pot I had left outside all winter. Reluctantly spring was about to see the first of my herbs come to life after such a strange winter. The bitter cold hadn't fazed them as they began to grow. It was time. I have even seen a dandelion hiding under the gray-green grass tufts that were beginning to green up. Le Petit Jardin was letting me know that it was time for spring attention. A friend had already helped me by drilling some drainage holes in a metal container that I have planned to use for spring planting. Hadn't it just snowed a few days ago? But the good news is that nothing stuck or stacked up. The ground had unfrozen, so snow was not going to make a difference. Today was warmer, in the 50's, but gray. I am still not quite ready to begin my gardening rituals. My thymes and lavender have not returned to life yet. I will have to rethink my gardening plans since my downstairs neighbor
