Hi Granny. It's windy cloudy here today, but I planted some asparagus beans and pickling cucumbers side by side today and tomorrow I'm planting more things. I think I'm going to plant some squash in my molasses barrels this year and radishes among them. OH, I've planted an upside down cherry tomato (hanging tomato?) and the poor thing doesn't know what to do. The first day a couple of the leaves turned black on the tips so I snipped them off, today one of the leaves acted weak, but the others look ok. We have some of the world's best "health" water here, full of all sorts of good things, so I had Roomey give it a good shot of water,I can't reach the top of the pot, we'll see what happens. This gardening stuff is interesting. I've also split an aloe apart and transplanted them. We'll see what happens.

You are about 2 months ahead of me. I cut back the Clematis this afternoon. I had on a fleece shirt with a heavy insulated hooded sweatshirt OVER it.

I probably should have seeded some larkspur. I forgot to do it last fall.
