Last Thursday I managed to get the front porch cleaned, all the 'started' plants outside, and the furniture and windows cleaned.

I purchased a few plants that I normally start---like herbs and a few flowers.
 |

Rosemary, Cilantro, Thyme...

The Liatris bulbs (55) I think all must have sprouted. I put 2-3 in a 4" pot and they certainly have outgrown their containers. With icky weather looming, I chose to harden off these plants on the front porch, back in the shade of the overhang.
The evening temps have been in the high forties, so that's perfect. Here they are protected from the wind and blazing sun if we have any.

I did move this broccoli tray to the back porch to wait to go into the Vegetable Garden.

My Giant Dahlias are almost to big to transplant, I will have to trellis them.

The Elephant Ears are slowly turning their leaves---that is the last window I have to clean, when the plant gets moved. I really wish it wasn't raining today

My very limited source of purchased plants. Sadly not using the greenhouse this year, is definitely crimping the budget.
The yard is quickly catching up on the late Spring.

Our Viburnum promises to explode as soon as the weather goes back to sun.

Our Yellow Barberry has exploded---I will have to prune this back. The mild winter has helped some things for sure.

The Iris are busy making leaves, not too many stalks yet though.

I think this is the fourth year for these Hostas, so I may have to divide them this Fall.

This is our humongous Giant Hosta and it's so beautiful as it unfolds and grows so fast this time of year.

I love this later variety of tulip that grows in our planter along the steps.

On the back porch are my coleus which are so slow--planted in early February.
Peppers, Tomatoes and Liatris are ready to go---but the garden isn't tilled yet,
WE ARE SO FAR BEHIND!
but, gorgeous weather forecasted for Monday planting!
