My hyacinth and daffodils seemed to be biding their time this spring, but finally opened today, in time for Earth Day. The Lenten rose that I thought succumbed to the elements also was found to be in bloom. I’ve felt behind on my planting, but thought it was appropriate to start that on Earth Day, as well, with radishes, pak choi, lettuce, Swiss chard, kale and peas finally going in my raised bed. All in all, a great way to celebrate the Earth.
