Magnificent Rain

We are experiencing a rainy start to the spring season here in zone 4. The much needed moisture is performing miracles throughout my garden’s landscape. The plants are soaking in the precipitation creating supersized flowers. The additional rain has left me scrambling to install garden stakes to keep plants from imploding on themselves from the additional weight of the water. I’m also taking advantage of the moment by plugging in a few annuals in the bare spot throughout the garden.  I’ve had a few floral casualties from the additional rain but the gains have outweighed the losses. I can only hope that this wonderful trend continues into summer.  Happy Planting
