Spring Sprouting

Wow, Miracle Gro. The seeds I planted just last week are already sprouting. The sprouts are very tiny -- a ladybug could sit on 2 or 3 and cover them completely. I don't know what anything is yet since it's a seed mix. Time will tell, though, and I got them in 2 months earlier than last year. Really, really hoping that the Morning Glories take. I planted the seeds along the edges of the porch so they have something to climb on.

I got some bulbs in yesterday (and saved some for beowabbit). The Renunculus and Galadiolas will be gorgeous if they come up. I have high hopes for the Lily-of-the-Valley, since it's been my favorite flower since childhood. I'm a little worried though because their bulbs look like juicy root vegetables, and I've seen evidence of critters visiting my flower beds. I knew I should have picked the critter-attracting sunflower seeds out of the mix, but I was impatient. Hope the Miracle Gro tastes bad and they leave the bulbs alone...
