My Garden: March in Vermont

The calendar may say that it is spring but it sure doesn’t look like it here On The Home Front! In fact the first day of spring arrive along with five inches of wet, heavy snow that clung to every branch.

Snow! On the first day of spring.

I can’t even see the outline of my raised beds and the blueberry bushes are practically covered.

Inside I do have some blooms to enjoy. The geraniums have made it though the winter and are bursting with color.

My orchids have sent out another spray of blooms.

Even my Cyclamen continues to bloom.

The Hoya is happy to finally be in a hanging pot and is sending out numerous blooms.

The seeds are planted and I’m awaiting the first signs of growth.

Waiting fro signs of growth.

It may not look like spring outside but it won’t be long before the snow is gone and the mountains are once again turning green! I can’t wait.

Spring
Can’t wait until spring!Linked
