Sunny and snowing; it's a beautiful day

Yes, snow. And looks/feels like more on the way.

So, not much gardening news to report today! Except I wasn't hallucinating--those tulips have, in fact, started to grow. Feels early to me--these tulips are in a particularly sunny spot that turns into hell's kitchen in July-August. Got some lambs ear, yarrow in there for high summer (oh and there is a patch of wild prickly pear just outside this garden bed)--I need some yucca or other desert-like plants to add in there. But for now, we have tulips. Until the deer eat them.

Let's not introduce invasive species. the Apache Plume is invasive here, and we're trying to get rid of it. Check your Idaho horticulture first.

Huh good point. High Country Gardens sells it, and I think I've seen a few around here--but I'll double check! I love your pampas grass out there too!
