A short while ago I got my basement back in order to start my spring ritual of planting seeds. With a full set of cabinets installed from my father a few years back, I have to say, I have the nicest planting space around. Last year I added about 6 under the counter aqua lights so I can start the seeds in the mini-green houses and have them sprouting in less than a week. Most seeds that I gather from the fall before, the girls look forward to scattering them through the yard, especially the spider flowers. But those that I can manage to salvage, I save for the next spring.

Shady Disposition

It's kinda nice because I am at the point in my yard that I no longer have to buy plants, just move them. I love these ferns here, I believe they are the Ostrich Fern and they spread nicely through the years. Once they start to look a little thick, I just take out a few and either give them away or move them to another shady spot in the yard. There is also a bleeding heart in the midst of all of the ferns and hostas.

My Little Dandelions

That's what I'm talkin' about!!!
