Apparently, amaryllis are notdeer resistant. That blows.

It does.

Can you get good fresh dirt form a dirt farm, or do you have to go to markets and get top soil....lol

Just look in the yellow phes under "top soil". They deliver it by the load.

Planting Caladiums, Oriental lillies and the crocus today. Yeah, playing in dirt!

Also bumped for bonus.

I'm jealous!!! Maybe I'll get a chance to play in some dirt over the weekend!

Planted my herbs. Two kinds of basil, parsley, oregano, white onions, garlic
three kinds of peppers and dill. I did this in a raised garden box. I always wanted one. I put some dahlia in there to plus lavender. Mulching, oh how fun(sarcasm).

You know, you could plant your own garden.

So, I had to cover everything. Going to get down to 28 degrees tonight.

Anybody try to grow asparagus here?

Nope. The only food I've grown is tomato plants (in containers, when I try them in the ground the critters get them) and pineapples (which the critters also get at least half the time, lol).

They can be grown here. The hybrids do better. I was unaware that tulips can be grown here.
