Spring is Coming...Here?

I started this post weeks ago -- in mid-February! -- when snow still covered the ground, and winter still had a grip on us. I had ordered seeds, and the buds had begun to get fat.

February 15, 2026

We had plans to winter sow poppy seeds, but the snow was still so deep.

March 8, 2026

My seeds arrived!

Queen Lime Red Zinnias, Spotted Bee Balm, Colocha Chocolate Green Coleus, and a free packet of Pink Fang Tomato all from Baker Heirloom Seeds (rareseeds.com).

And slowly, the snow melted...

March 25, 2026

...and finally we got the first shoots and flowers!

Crocuses! April 1, 2026, no joke!

I guess it's too late to "winter" sow the poppies!
