Hi friends. I can tell it is spring because I went to the locally owned garden center and bought quite a few plants and seeds. Are you doing this too? I know some of you in Australia have different seasons of course.
Two daisy type flowers for a large pot I have, where a lemon tree grew for many years. Plus a six pack of 6 sugar pea plants and a six pack of red butter lettuce plants. Also seeds for round carrots and mixed colors of radishes seeds. Today I planted the pea plants and red lettuce in my waist high planter.Isn't this cute? Dennis says "Do you count sheep to get to sleep, grandpa?" and grandpa says "Nope, I talk to the shepherd."

Love that cartoon. 🩵
Yes, talking to the Shepherd is the only way to get through the day.
It is time to be doing that... buying plants and seeds. I just repotted my inside plants but need to decide if I want to replant my trug garden outside. If so, I need to do this soon. And talking to the Shepherd is probably better than counting sheep.
It's still too cold here for planting, snow predicted again next week - but we are looking forward to it!
I love the Dennis the Menace cartoon.
I've never been much good at gardening but can see how fun it would be to get all those new plants. My daughter always goes crazy with new flowers every year.
Love the Dennis the Menace strip.
You're going to have quite the garden this year.
Awe...I love the meme cartoon. Our warm temps have really brought out the flower growers to the garden centers. I get weak when I visit there because I want one of everything...lol
Good Sunday morning. How exciting to get new plants. I need to get some new pots for our balcony. Love the cartoon. Yes, talking to the Shepard solves many problems. Sunday hugs.
We're having snow flurries this afternoon so no flowers as yet. I'm like Mr. Wilson. I fall asleep everynight talking to the Shepherd. There is nothing better.
Blessings,
Betsy
Since we live in a forested area, we don't plant a garden, but I do miss that. I love the array of plants you purchased. And yes, that cartoon is precious! Blessings!
That is a cute cartoon! Yes, we need to talk to the shepherd!
I cannot wait for spring to arrive here!

I'm feeling the buzz of buying new plants and seeds for the garden.
Love the answer that wise grandpa gave to his grandson.
What a sweet cartoon!
I love shopping for seeds though aside from sprouts seeds, I haven't bought anything yet this year. I love this time of year though. Happy Planting. Cheers, Ivy.
It is that time of year
A bit too early here yet to buy plants for my balcony (still risk of frosty nights). But I received your flowery card on Friday, thanks! :)
Hello: You are lucky to be able to plant seed, it is snowing here in Minnesota today. Love the cartoon.

I spring-cleaned my balcony today, but no plants yet. We're having a couple of sunny and warm days right now but April is a very capricious month here and it will probably get colder again.
Spring is such a wonderful time for planting—it sounds like you’re off to a great start with your selections! Those daisies will brighten up your space beautifully, and the sugar peas and butter lettuce promise some delicious, homegrown goodness. There’s something deeply satisfying about getting your hands in the soil and watching life emerge.
And that little exchange between Dennis and his grandpa? Absolutely heartwarming. It carries a lovely sense of wisdom and faith, wrapped in simple words.
By the way, I’ve just shared a new post—you might enjoy it: www.melodyjacob.com.
I have so many seeds that I was gonna plant this year and never did. Regret that now. And every year that I don't follow through. Now it's already getting rather warm and only gonna get worse over the next months. Happy planting to you.
Heartfelt best wishes for your plantation dear Terra 👍♥️
It's always such a joy to get your hands in the soil and watch everything grow!
And the little exchange between Dennis and grandpa is so adorable! It’s moments like these that really warm the heart and remind us of the simple, beautiful things in life.
By the way, I’ve just shared a new blog post and would love for you to check it out. I’d be thrilled to hear your thoughts! Wishing you a wonderful weekend filled with growth—both in your garden and beyond.
