This is what I'm talking about...
The sun has been shining in CNY, and the days are warming a bit. EVERYONE wants to be outside! Garage/Yard Sales are still sparse, I spend my 'down' time snooping through dumpsters and Gardening!

This past week I had a MAJOR 'Dive' SCORE of SIX (6!) pots of Easter Mini-Daffodils. While they are past their 'BEST BY:' for this year, the bulbs planted in our garden will flourish in the future!!
Since I had been 'bit' by the Spring Gardening Bug, I gathered up a batch of seed packets (flower, herb & veggie!) that I had rescued from a discarded display last Fall (2020). I am still trying to decide what to do with the stack of New Gathering Buckets I recently dove. Tall, Skinny, WaterTight... Any Ideas?? I then ventured to our basement & garage to gather an array of 'Potting Vessels', which will later be divested around our gardens! While doing this I came across a 20# bag of potting soil that I had forgotten about (or should I say a Large grey tote, holding the contents of a 20# bag of potting soil)... Isn't it silly that a Bag of Dirt 'has' to be tossed if it gets a little slit in the bag??!
~FOUR pots of Canna Lily bulbs. As a general rule, I plant NO bulbs that require attention EVERY change of season (gladiolus, dahlias, etc...)! However, every rule has it's exceptions! My Father had an affinity for Canna Lilies. He left a LARGE legacy of Canna Lily bulbs! Several members of our family are now trying to learn the art of growing these fickle plants. We've potted them - it's up to you now Dad!
~ My 'growing plants from seeds' ability isn't exactly stellar, but in the Spring it always 'Sparks JOY' (lol!!). So, amongst the pots are 'CILANTRO', 'BASIL', 'ROSEMARY', 'CHILI PEPPERS" and 'PANSIES"
~AND~
The Easter Daffodils are all tucked in their new homes, trying to give us a little love by opening a fresh new blossom or two before they call it quits for 2021!

&
be well!
