Clean out your birdbath, if you haven't done so already. Plant your early spring vegetables: in your freshly dug and composted veggie garden start to plant hardy vegetable seeds. These include swiss chard, onions, radishes, spinach, mustard greens, beets, lettuce, carrots… Pull out of storage your lovely wind chimes, and hang them everywhere. The lovely sounds blend in with the spring chirping of birds. Also hang a couple of windsocks for the children to enjoy! Besides the herbaceous stuff in your garden add some solid mass in the form of garden sculptures. This might mean moss rocks in the rock garden, stone walls surrounding a flower bed or defining a piece of property, driftwood adding height to a corner, concrete pavers outlining a path, terracotta planters placed in strategic places, stone or concrete critters, old iron railings or posts.. use your imagination! Fertilize your perennials using light, frequent doses. |
