Say It Ain't So!

The saintpaulias whispered to each other as they bloomed in their finest adoring the window seal. I thought it was spring. But she was out in the yard on Sunday. A squirrel sat on the fence and ate a bulb this morning. Never underestimate Mother Nature. Wasn't yesterday the first day of spring?

Glad I  put wood ash from the fireplace around my peony before it snowed. 

Mean while in the house. Had to transplant some of my larger seedlings into larger containers. All in different stages of growth. Foxgloves.

Some are still tiny. I pulled out the ones that weren't going to make it from containers.

Looks dead but I'll water them and see if they perk up.

One begonia. Oh well. Couldn't kill it though.

The worst looking seedlings I've ever had, but don't think they'll look like this when they can get outside and in the ground.

Have to transplant those coleus but they needed to be watered first. They were wilted so I'll do them another day. The dark ones are chocolate mint, some of my favorite.

Two peppers up and 2 emerging, and only one broccoli so far.

Hopefully I can transplant these on the weekend.

Three sage seedlings and trout lettuce.

And to think these were the sad looking seedlings that I was going to throw out. They continue to grow. I'll separate them soon.

All of the vegetables have germinated excet flat and curly leaf parsley.

Different looking ivy leaf geraniums. They must be the summer shower ones.

Echinacea

Five petunias.

Had to throw out a few vinca they got diseased. Hope it doesn't spread to everything.

Smaller foxgloves the second sowing and snapdragons to the right. Don't know what will happen with them. In the fall I'll buy pelleted snapdragon seeds. They have to be easier.

Vegetables will go on the bottom shelf and the plants will be moved to another place in the house.
