My Mom’s rhubarb bush is all green and growing. She makes rhubarb jam with it every year. She has tomatoes started inside. Trees are starting to bud and she said that seems to be a sign that nights below freezing are done. So the days of flowers going out during the day and coming in at night should just about be done.

She will be able to put the tomatoes out probably this week. She has cages and said the front porch seems to be the best growing place. She can no longer get up and down, so gardening is very limited.

You’re Mom is a treasure.

P.S. Tell your Mom I’m tossing The Farmer’s Almanac and relying on her from now on for my growing seasons.
