| Forsythia |
The forsythia is blooming! Which, as near as I can tell according to the folklore, means either that spring is here, or we have three more snows yet. In western New York, that's probably the same thing. From what I understand, the essence of those beliefs comes from the fact that the forsythia start blooming due to a general increase in the overall soil temperature. That's a good sign for me, since the seeds I planted a couple weeks ago don't seem to be doing much. Only the mesclun mix has really come up. Hopefully the increase in soil temperature will allow the other seeds to get going. Read across the fold for the garden update, inside and out, and more pictures.
