It may be Spring but we sure haven't had much warm weather. My bedding plants have grown nicely and I am chomping at the bit wanting to get them planted. But, there is still snow on the mountains, way too much rain lower down and it is still too d... cold.
The plants are happy in the greenhouse but the heater is still coming on at night and I don't think they would do well if I planted them out. Most of my flowers go in pots around the house. I find that pots don't get weeds like flowerbeds do and I don't have to bend as far - lol.
All the pots ready for flowers; there are about 50 of them but they have a lot of space to fill. Here are some photos of the yard when the pots are full and in bloom.

While we are waiting and hoping for warm weather, we have been doing some work around the yard - between rain showers. One thing just completed today was a new gallery Open sign at the end of the driveway. I am lucky enough to have a very handy husband who can do so many things and is also willing to do them.
And here are a few pictures of what visitors to the gallery see as they come down my driveway.
Oh, wait, Bob is not usually standing in the middle of the drive - lol. Anyway, there are still a few turns before reaching the house and people are often concerned about what they will find at the end. They needn't worry as there is lots of space to turn a car around.
Anyway, that is what Spring has been like so far this year; we go out wearing winter jackets or stay in the house waiting for warmth.
