Spring and green spaces-- and where do I put the new shrubs?

Lo and behold, maybe spring has chosen to arrive for real? Although it's still darn chilly at night, I slept with the window open all night and I slept better than I have in ages. The pea trellis arrived yesterday, and Holly and I put it up. She's a good helper. My carrots are doing well, the tomatoes and squash plants are managing okay-- but where the hell are the beans? I planted them, but I wonder if too much rain has rotted the seeds. I'll be a bit more patient, but usually green beans are popping up in no time. We shall see. 

We still have some yard work and planting to go, but I'm feeling a little more on top of things. I didn't wash the deck windows yet-- too much pollen still, so why bother? It'll abate soon enough, and then it'll make sense to do the windows.

And the weather was glorious yesterday. And looks to be good again today. G is going to mow the grass, and maybe string trim-- depends on what he feels up to. He got a spring cold (and shared it around-- poor Holly is snuffly), so we'll see. But things are green and growing, and that's what matters. 

Conundrum: I was going to put the new winterberry shrub where the red rose bushes are. They appeared dead. They are not. I need to find a new prospective home for the bushes --two of them!-- soon. And the dogwood is going in the front yard still... maybe. I may switch that up. I dunno. I have to walk around and figure it out later. Stay tuned!

Have a good day, folks.
