The First Day Of February

In a garden without winter.



I managed to cut down the dead dried sticks of the wildflower surround of the roadside vegetable garden before the rains came. Then I went back to bed. Apparently the day of work work yesterday wore me out. It is spring like down below and time to start work again. I never got a break like this on Maui.

Need more woodchips to finish the vegetable garden and I am very tempted to seed fresh lettuce and other greens now. The seeds will be fine and they will come up when the conditions are right.



A little cabin on a hill with fresh hardscape elements in place waits for the hidden daffodils.



And then for the Lush to stir.

We do need relief in the weather sometimes to get "caught up". Yea for the planting of some seeds.
It all looks very fresh & tidy. Just waiting for the lush to start. More chips are needed for sure. Sure wish I could get some around here but the roaches would take over. Might even tote the house off. lol

Auwe, Chris,
NOW I ssseee the sssnake! OK den, but you need to post a Kapu sign, brah. Maybe even "Beware of Menehune". You place looks so exceptionally nicely tended! Even in a no-winter winter, it's really attractive. Maybe some snow is yet to come, bt we are all on the edge of our keyboards awaiting the bulbapalooza.

Lola I am ready for the Lush to begin. Everything is mowed now.

Pomaika'i glad you finally saw the snake. No worm here except under my woodchip mulch. Plenty worms. The Bulbapaloozathon will be getting started shortly.
