Spring is finally showing…

6 May

I finally am able to start finding plants that are beginning to show signs of spring. Today has been the first time this year that I have been able to walk the nursery without being cold. My dog Monty joined me and was as happy as could be, his nose was going a mile a minute! He is an old guy and it is just nice to see him with spring fever. The fields are still mucky and I did get my buggy stuck once but managed to get out without being pushed. I was trying to get some pictures of the yellow Magnolias for a customer (they are not in bloom yet). But some of the Saucer magnolias are opening. Today was just taking pictures of everything that is trying to bloom. As the weeks progress there will be too much to take pictures of! We are very busy still digging and I think all of my blogs will have something about the move in it. It is just such a huge undertaking to move all these trees within a 2 month window and it is exciting and scary at the same time. It is exciting to draw the site plan of our new location and envision what it will be like – after 30 years at this location it will be very different.

So – below are some pictures of the spring trying to happen. Tomorrow is supposed to be nice as well and perhaps I will see some more plant action in some different parts of the yard!
