Blooms for Spring
Tackle early spring gardening chores by repairing a dry stacked stone wall. Late winter to early spring is an ideal time to reposition stones. Sometimes
minor adjustments are all that's needed.
Gardeners can fix uneven stepping stones, correct tunnels made by garden pests, and clean birdhouses for decor purposes. It will most likely be beneficial to do a quick sketch of where your bulbs are. This will help when the foliage fades later. Some of the beautiful spring blooms are Peony, Cherry Blossoms, Gardenias, Orchids, Tulips, and Roses.
