It's not even 1:15pm on Saturday and I'm pretty sure I've already overdone it in the garden. But I got a lot of stuff in, so... Maybe I can actually rest, with that off my mind?
I got in a boatload of seeds for various greens, particularly perennial or self-seeding greens. I put in my ozette and huckleberry potatoes (the later is supposed to be low glycemic index? I just got 3, I'm curious what those will be like). I also put in my two artichoke plants, because despite not being as big as I'd like, they seem to be languishing a bit in their nursery pots.
I put a couple of things in that are definitely a month too early, as I wasn't really thinking about it. Hopefully that doesn't doom them. The irony is that it was the two seeds I've been looking for years to find, and they can be a bit challenging to locate. Ugh.
Worst case, what's another year of waiting to find out if there's a variety of zucchini that doesn't taste like wallpaper paste to me.

@eugeneparnell I'm actually about halfway across the country in the South! Didn't realize you all had a #Zone8b all the way over there. Thanks for the suggestions!

Where are my #zone8b #gardening folks? My yard was never precisely verdant and with this intense summer heat I'm feeling just about despondent over the lack of green in my life. How are you all coping? Any clever tricks to coax a little life into your yards that I could try for next season?

My rosemary is flowering. All I need now are bees.

Just when I thought it was safe to plant a few things, they're predicting a freak cold snap and snowstorm overnight tomorrow. Haven't I suffered enough winter?

@Gbutera
Absolutely itching. It's been a long winter, and today is actually our average last frost date. Still watching to see how it goes, but hopefully by mid-April I'll be in full swing.

@whitepineswhisper Thanks Kathy.Yes. It's what's under the ground that they wanted. Can't grow a lot this time of year but these were doing well under cover #Scotland #Glasgow #zone8b
