Post by: twol on April 11, 2012, 04:58:07 pm: I haven't been gardening much this year, just some weeding here and there. I usually plant bulbs but I never got around to it. I do have some lovely indoor plants that I take care of. I'm planning on getting an orchid :)

Have too wait until we know there won't be a late freze. but i am ready too go. Also will be redoing part of my front yard too. It is my quite time and gives me a chance to wind down.

Michigan's weather is crazy. Three week ago we felt like summer, my garden start grow the beautifully. Now, with ice storm and few snow shower, everything was frozen. Good thing that I haven't plant any flowers even I thought about it. I learned my lesson in the past that I better wait after May. when Michigan's weather getting better.

Post by: tjshorty on April 13, 2012, 06:55:58 pm: Mine looks like it's going to be a 5 scene show. the tulips came and went the apple tree already blossomed waiting on the lillys and the peones. Then the vegetable garden should come in. I think it's going to be a good year.

Post by: LAkathi on April 13, 2012, 07:27:11 pm: I definitly do not have a green thumb, I could not even grow weeds. That is my husbands area of expertise, every evening after work and on the weekends, he is outside, watering,weeding, planting, and whatever else it is that people who can grow plants and not kill them do, to keep our yard looking beautiful. :dontknow:

I do not have a green thumb. I usually buy some hanging potted flowers for the patio. In front I have 2 whiskey barrel planters and plant petunias since they grow by themselves with no fussing from me.

Post by: ptfunds on April 21, 2012, 06:59:36 pm: I do have a green thumb and love to garden. I'm looking forward to doing a lot of container gardening this summer! I just spend the first days of sun in Washington re-potting my house plants outside. It was a beautiful day and really got me excited about the coming gardening season. I can hardly wait to get my seedlings started. Thanks for this great topic and for the opportunity to think about Summer some more today!
