Spring Shoots

With spring in full swing all kinds of things are emerging from there winter slumber.  These pictures are from last Saturday that I just haven't had time to post yet. 

This picture is of my lilac bush just starting to bud.  Although there are two of them only thirty feet apart because of the difference in sun they get only one of the two has any buds.

This is a picture of the peony just breaking through.  I need to get some cages for them this weekend, something that is always left too late in prior years.

The hosta’s just starting, few days slower than the others.

This is the sedum, I can already tell I should have separated it in the fall, but I will separate it this fall if not sooner, so I can use some at the cottage.

The asparagus I transplanted, I probably should have buried it a little deeper than I did, but plan on top dressing with manure and didn’t want it to end up too deep.

Green onions that I left in the garden overwinter.  They look and taste great.  New ones are being planted in the next few days.

The rhubarb before being moved, it will be moved tomorrow to the new garden bed.  It will be in significantly better soil and will get the benefit of full sun. 

I would also like to recognize and thank my sister for taking these pictures.
