Persephone Crowning

The myth of Persephone is the story of rebirth. Plants pushing up from the underworld were they spent the dark days of winter. I saw a bit of Persephone in my garden on Valentine's Day.
Common Daylillies
Ferns
Oregano
Daffodils
Tulips
Then there were signs of budding on trees and bushes.


Budding Redbud
New wood on a Hydrangea
Budding Rhododendren

As Persephone said in Latin,
Tempus Fugit!

It is time I get my new square foot garden ready for peas in Mid-March.
