Tulips are in bloom.  I planted red and purple tulips last October in the front parkway from bags of 35 that were on sale at Home Depot.

14 packets of seeds from the Dollar store (American seed brand) were planted in front parkway.  Catnip and raspberries are strong.  Front parkway may take center stage again this year.  Bought 20 cu.ft. of good pine bark and 5 cu.ft. of mushroom compost so all set for planting in the next few weeks.  Might be able to skip a trip to Gesethemane this season.
