Today I am planting 3 bunches of red onion sets in my large raised galvanized tub. One bunch down - two to go. Seems to me that the bunches are smaller than they were a couple of years ago and cost more.

Connie the last of the frozen snow on the galvanized tub melted yesterday and the frozen snow around it. All three bunches are planted and a chance of rain later today so I will see if it happens before I water the onions. Felt good to play in the dirt.

Connie you are absolutely right. It's also very emotionally healing.

Just planted garlic, and our warm December weather has been very kind to them. Spouts are already a foot tall.

“Good clean garden dirt” as I tell my friends as we compare my hands with their shiny manicures! Love it!
When asked “How are you?”, I reply, “Better than good!” |

Please post pictures when your onions and garlic start to show. It has been at or below zero in the mornings here and in the 20's or lower during the day. We have probably 4 inches of snow on the ground. I need to see what I have to look forward to! I planted my garlic in September and can't wait to see it in the spring. I have my garden beds planned out and I'm ready!

Andrea, I don't post pictures, but my garlic has been up since fall and so far, is surviving freezing temps at night. Planning what to grow and the beds is part of the fun of gardening.

So far fall onions and elephant garlic made it thru the polar blast SC had last week. I have them covered with frost cloth.
When I am outside tomorrow I'll get pictures
Today's good mood brought to you by a lot of coffee!!!

How exciting Sara. I am so ready to get started with my garden, but I still have a while before I can get out there. I am already planning out what I want this year!

Tara, hope your foot heals soon. Like you my garlic and onions are holding on, but they do look a little raggedly around the edges.

It's too early here to be doing any work out in the garden but look what I discovered now that the snow has melted:
My tulips seem to be confused! It's not time for them to be waking up yet.

Oh, Heather what a sweet surprise, I hope they bloom so you have a little bit of color in the flower bed.
