Weekly Garden Snapshot: 2024 week 8
The snow is steadily melting down in my garden, and like some sort of sneaky alien, the buds from my beautiful, red hellebore are now starting to emerge!
Looking back 1-2 weeks and 1-2 years suggests one or two other things may be emerging soon – along with critters, apparently? or maybe they’ll just be getting cuter shortly.
Looking back 2-4 weeks and 2-4 years shows other examples of struggling out from under the snow – and the fact that this tends to be the time of maximum untidy in my garden.
…This week my garden is reminding me that in the fall I heaped everything that was just under the snow in a bunch of dead leaves – and also that spring shoots are stronger than dead leaves!
