Just in the last week, the pussywillows have started to emerge. This is the first year in a long while that they've begun to bloom at the right time of year. This particular tree is now well over 15 feet tall, having grown more than a foot and a half in height and probably a foot in circumference each year.
I planted a knee-high wispy little shrub in the spring of 1999....I think she likes it here. So, between this "harspringer" of hope and the little green guys shrugging off their potting soil covers down in the fluorescent light-trays, there are signs everywhere that spring is coming on like an avalanche. Gentlefolk......on your mark - start your seeds!
