Busy Bee

Spring is suddenly breaking out after hiding for all of March. The greenhouse is still non-existent, so no seed sowing for me yet. The garden survived the winter quite well, waiting patiently until we can plant. Last year a severe frost on Memorial Day wiped out almost every tomato plant in Reno, so choosing a planting date is critical.
