For gardeners, spring is when we dream big: flower beds and window boxes filled with stunning flowers and pots and plots crammed with vegetable plants ready to harvest. (Yeah, talk to me in August, after bugs, heat, drought and weeds.) During this pandemic season, I’ve been gardening with a vengeance, or at least as much as the rain and lack of seeds and plants will allow. If you’re interested in gardening, check out this NPR article “This Is a Good Time to Start a Garden: Here’s How.” I’ve also been binge watching “Gardener’s World” on BritBox with Britain’s favorite gardener, Monty Don, with whom I’m slightly obsessed.
Repotted a bunch of houseplants and started new ones from cuttings. 
Started seeds in a recycled salad container on a Cozy Toes warming mat. 
Planted argula (here) and ginger root in pots. Also on the deck: a blueberry bush and a fig tree that’s never produced a fig. 
Rhubarb that a fellow gardener divided and shared. Waiting for warmer weather to plant tomatoes, eggplant and beans. 
Work day last spring in the community garden where I’m a member. This year’s work day was canceled, but every plot has been claimed and membership has doubled. 
Long-term project: Rehabbing this rock garden.
