It's Monday



"Plant smiles; grow giggles; harvest love" ~Author Unknown

Hello All. Hope you shared time with family and friends over the weekend. There was beautiful weather here yesterday. A bit windy, gusty at times, and overall great! Even bet there was some "sun burnin'" going on!!!!

And today has been forecast to be nice and sunny, mid to upper 80 temps. Oh, we do love spring!

I was asked a question yesterday, What do the terms dormant, evergreen and semi-evergreen mean? Well, those terms describe foliage behavior, usually winter foliage behavior. Dormant refers to plants whose foliage dies all the way back in the winter. Evergreen refers to plants whose foliage retain their color throughout the winter. Semi-evergreen refers to those who fall in between dormant and evergreen. The foliage does die back but not all the way and leaves remain somewhat green.

All for now. Until next time, Happy Gardening.
