There are a
ton of things to do out there, but planting is not one of them just yet. I know
this is first and foremost on people’s minds when the weather turns balmy this
time of year; but fight it. I remember my years at the garden center trying to gently
persuade those starry-eyed-spring fevered individuals that it’s just a little too
early to be planting their flower beds, and then seeing them back a couple
weeks later in a trench coat and dark glasses not wanting to make eye contact picking
out the same stuff as before.
We live in
zone 6, which means we run the threat of a killing frost until around May 15;
so find some other things to do.
You can
till up your garden, pull the mulch off your rose beds, put down mulch in your
landscaping, get out the deck chairs, power wash the deck, plan out your garden….
just don’t plant your plants yet!
