It is a lovely, but cool, first of May. Only supposed to be a high of 58 today. Last week was amazing. Beautiful, warm, springlike.
The spring bulbs have gone nuts in the garden. All of the daffs are open. First the big showy trumpets, then the little minis that smell so sweet. Hyacinths grew where I forgot that I had planted them, and in a couple of places (under a bush?) that I couldn't conceive of ever planting them. I will move those this weekend.
I bought more dahlia bulbs the other day, and will probably plant them this weekend if it doesn't rain. I also have to investigate whether I managed to save any of the bulbs I dug up last fall. I know I dug them up; don't remember if I then did anything with them.
Adams Nursery is having their impatiens sale this weekend -- $9.95 a flat, or thereabouts. It's still a little early to plant them. Last year I planted them on Mother's Day, and they did just fine. I also have several coupons to use there in May.
