It's been a cold and snowy winter and I think many of us are ready for some Spring.  I know some years we have had snowdrops in bloom by now in our gardens.  I suppose a long Spring is better than an early Spring though.  If my memory is clear, last year's Spring season was spectacular.  We've been ordering seeds and plugs for our garden center and for our cutting gardens during the past 2 weeks.  Gardening can be so rewarding and fun.  Try a big pot on your patio or if you have a sunny spot in your garden, dig up a small patch and try a few flowers or vegetables.  Share these experiences with young people and spread the knowledge and love of plants and gardening!
