Spring is here....

I love spring!  It's been a long winter and I just can't wait to work in the yard.  I went and check in my flower bed and there were buds here and there coming out from various location.  It's about time to divide them since we've been in the house for 4 years now.  The tulips and daffodils need to be planted elsewhere since they are in the middle of the lawn.  I wonder why the previous owner did that!  I got some really good sales of azaleas plants and I grabbed six red and six whites.  They are supposed to be deer resistant though.... don't know anymore since all my daylilies were nibbled all the way down to the stem from last year.  I am planning to get some summer bulbs and finished planting my 3-season  garden.  Hopefully, we will see flowers from spring through fall.  It will be nice!!!

Anyway, the deers did not touch my herb garden at all.... which I am extremely impressed!  May be I can get a few more echinacea.  They produce beautiful pinkish purple flowers and are good medicinal herb.  Other than that, I also want some chamomile (good for skin and drinks), thyme (herb that is almost perfect for any digestive problems).  I've enjoyed my rosemary and lavender from last year.  The kids love my rosemary chicken and I love my lavender plant.  It not only smell good, but also produce beautiful flowers.  I will be making some homemade antiseptic solution in the house because of it's anti-inflammatory properties.  My St. John's wort (the happy mood plant because of it's anti-depressant qualities) plants were growing well last year also.  They have beautiful little yellow flowers and were doing quite well after the winter.  Yarrow, oregano, and more..... Wish it stop raining so that I can work in my garden.
