Here in Baltimore, frost-free date is about May 1. My hostas, heucheras, strawberries, most of my perennials, etc. are already bursting like rockets from the soil. My roses are fully leafed out, too. I’m looking forward to seeing my beautiful hostas in full leaf and to planting my vegetable garden.
Yes, I know. Baltimore is a couple weeks ahead of us in the hills of northern Jersey. Even south Jersey is way ahead of us.
