Waiting for Spring

Gardening in southeastern Wisconsin is full of surprises, challenges and pleasures.  One of the things that is so rewarding about gardening here is the very fact that we can’t do it whenever the mood strikes.  We wait impatiently for months, looking longingly out the window and through garden magazines.

 

 I continue to tend perennials that I overwinter in the house. On a gloomy, rainy March day, blooming geraniums are a reminder that winter will eventually end. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Even my garden gnomes are getting tired of snow.



It's time to decide what vegetables to plant, what new perennials to try this year, and what annuals will go in the window boxes.  Let the gardening season begin (soon)!
