To Remember...that things really do grow.

This year has not been the best spring we've had in Manitoba. The weather has been quite cool and rainy, which means everything is growing at a painfully slow rate. I'm starting to get frustrated and impatient. I want to see how this year's experiments turn out.

A random iris that decided to come up in our gravel.

This year's garden box. Hot peppers, basil, strawberries, lettuce & carrots.

Addidtions to the front yard. Lilly of the valley (stolen from Bevan) in efforts to convince the cats that this space is NOT their litter box. More hostas and some mystery perrenial ground cover with pretty purple flowers purchased down the street for an amazing $1 each.

The irises and lillies.

I planted tulips, but forgot to take any pictures, they were beautiful. This strip is where my annuals go. I can't believe it, but I bought petunias (and a few other things).
