Bea's Beatitudes on herbs comes from a life long journey of a wish to create a desire in others that will lead to better understanding of safe and healthy food knowledge. Which will promote better land stewards, which will leave better resources for the next generation. This will create a cycle that will make a difference in the world forever.

February Do's In The Garden.
Gardeners are sitting on go during the month of February.
A few things most of us can do now regardless where we are located.
Plant cool season vegetables. (kale, lettuce, onions, cabbage, and some greens.)
Divide any perennials you wish to seperate, have rootings from, etc. ( rosemary, thyme, sage, some lavenders, and oregano.)
Prune fruit trees and roses. (There are many good websites that will guide you in the
proper way to prune.)
Plant fruit trees and roses.
Plant regional bulbs. ( calla lillies, etc.)
Clean your garden tools and wash and disinfect any pots and planters from last year.
Order any seed or transplants you wish to have by planting time in your area.
( most places will ship according to your growing zone.)
I'm looking forward to the spring. To feel the warm sunshine on my face, the dirt between my fingers and watch the beginning of life take shape as the tiny little growths spring up here and there.
What's your garden plans , do share~~
Have a Fun February~~in the garden !

Bea, I'm also getting antsy for spring...especially this year.
I've been developing a new gardening website that will allow people to design their garden online using web-based landscaping software. Then they can share their garden plans and pictures with others. The landscaping software isn't quite ready, but the plant database is coming a long nicely.

Sounds interesting, looking forward to viewing your plans.
I suppose Mr. Groundhog knew his stuff with his prediction of more winter.
We had a bad sleet and rain storm last night, today we have frozen ground, with a layer of sleet and snow falling.
Gardens are covered still, so hopefully everything is ok.
Happy Gardening !
