Morning all! Things are growing well here in west Michigan. We always have good romaine so that is all we grow, red and white. A couple of years ago I tried cutting the mature heads off with a scissors or sharp knife. Did that on 2 red heads 5 days ago and you can see the regrowth. Still a few asparagus spears each day. Eating green onions, waiting on radishes and hoeing weeds every 3 days or so. Irises still opening love the show so far.

one of my favorites, a large frilly pink

4 colors of violets done blooming, the white ones always seem to hang on the longest and are the most prolific.

Looking forward to the rest of the irises, also have some lupines and a beautiful 2 tone japanese peony coming.
