Mavis Garden Blog – Sedums, Daffodils, Lettuce, Swiss Chard and Parsley

Yesterday I stopped by the Home Depot to use my $5 off $50 Garden Club purchase coupon that came in the mail {did you get one?}.

I was pleasantly surprised when I spotted flats of sedum plants for $12.99. I have a really cool project planned for these that I’m going to try and get done this weekend. I’llpost the pictures when I get it all put together.

The daffodils are blooming like crazy! I can’t pick them for bouquets fast enough.

I finally got around to planting 2 more gutters in the greenhouse. I started mesclun lettuce and a 3 round of Swiss chard. Once they get to be a few inches tall I’ll transplant them outside to the garden.

When the lettuce and Swiss chard are moved to the garden I think I’ll transplant my basil starts in to the gutters and grow them there this summer. I grew basil in the greenhouse last year and it really did well, so why mess with a good thing, right?

I also planted some parsley starts in the herb garden as well. I’ll give a full garden tour tomorrow,  but I think it’s fun to show whats going on in the garden each step of the way.

What is happening at YOUR place? Has the snow melted yet?

Happy Saturday everyone!
