After nearly giving in and hauling out the garden hose to give a drink to plant here and there around the yard, the rain arrived. It started raining Friday around noon and it hasn't hardly let up since! I feel so good for the thirsty flowers, trees and shrubs - but I am itching to be outside messing around with planting seeds and doing some trimming here and there.
Hopefully there will be a break in the rain long enough to head over to the Indiana State School for the Visually Impaired where the annual plant sale begins tomorrow at noon. There is a nice greenhouse where the students take part in growing and maintaining a nice selection of annuals and perennials. Some additional plants are brought in from commercial suppliers. It is one of my favorite places to buy plants every spring and I am really looking forward to this year's selection!
