Cottage gardens are my favorite! Linz what will be blooming next month when I am in the area? Rhododendrons?
You guys are all so lucky to get to start so early! Since I live in MN I have to wait until May 15-June 1st to plant tomatoes and peppers and the like. I want to plant the really cold hardy stuff before my trip but we will see if I actually do. I should take a picture of the potatoes in my basement before DH sees them and freaks out. I have potatoes from last year that I didn't eat that have sprouted and my mom (an expert- just got a job at Walmart garden center LOL) told me to lay them out in the light and spread them out. They have 6+ inch long runners coming out. EEK. My area has sandy soil and we grow a lot of potatoes. I really like the "all red" ones! They taste awesome I swear! Unforunately DH won't help in the garden and I have to dig them up myself with that bad hip of mine too.
