Ok, it's working! Woo! :)

This is going to be my garden blog, full of gardeny goodness and amusing mishaps involving plants.

Right now, what's up in the garden:
* Trilliums (more than last year!)--already up and unfurling
* Camassia is just coming up
* Little hostas on the side of the house are poking up their green fingers
* Playboy rose and Amy Vanderbilt rose have little red leaves unfurling
* Lavenders have little green sprouts on the bottoms
* Monardas are getting green and bushy
* Remaining ugly orange lilies are sprouting
* Blueberry has lots of buds
* Blackberry has little leaves unfurling near the base
* Oregano is out and looking great!
* Wintergreen appears to be still alive! Yeah!!!
* Spearmint is greening!

New development in weediness:
* new small white-flowered weed proliferating EVERYWHERE which I've never noticed before. My old friends Placeholder Weed (Asiatic Daylily) and Gill-over-the-ground are somewhat absent.

Things I just did:
*pruned the apple trees and the roses
*ripped up a bunch of ivy

Things I want to do:
* rip up more ivy
* cut down the little Norway maple, the pignut hickory and all the weird little opportunistic trees in the side area and put in nice happy native stuff
* get someone who knows how to build a little retaining wall to do so (and get the borough to approve it!)

Also... I desperately want a greenhouse!!!! I want it to be a recycled leanto greenhouse and I will be collecting and hoarding unwanted storm windows and doors....
