Truly getting started in the garden

Well, knowing that it will be a wet Sunday and week ahead...I:
1. cut the grass for the 1st time, on the highest setting since it was long in spots.
2. turned the compost pile
3. raked out the veg-garden
4. planted hot-pepper seeds in a container w/ Lauren
5. planted grass seed (front yard) w/ Lauren
6. pulleed out the old castor-bean roots--huge!
7. planted the 'few' canna at the garage as usual...less than a dozen, not many good ones...not sure of the issue (maybe they need to be cleaned better in the fall)
8. transplanted a few plants in the front beds
9. planted the 4-lilies from St. Ray's alter at the fence line
10. other?...gotta be more? oh yeah, dug-up weeds-dandies in the yard...

a good day to officially start the season...

up next...the veg garden, annuals for the balcony & yard, ee's and castor plantings...stay tuned...
