| Get Excited About Spring!!
Reason #1 - NO SNOW!!!
Reason #2 - Seeing all the bulbs sprouting up from the ground... always a welcome sign in my book!
Reason #3 - Being able to enjoy the outdoors for longer periods of time (sometimes Daylight Savings really stinks!).
Reason #4 - NO SNOW!!!
Reason #5 - Seeing and hearing the birds of spring - I find it quite amusing sometimes to watch Robins hop around in search of worms.

Koreanspice Viburnum - Viburnum carlesi
We have grown Viburnum carlesi or Koreanspice Bush for years and I finally planted one this past year in my home garden, not by choice but by following my wife's instructions! And as usual, Kathy was right; this plant was the star of our garden last spring. I cannot believe I was dismissing this old favorite and can tell you this, we will be adding more to our landscape wherever we can.

Home Orchard & Fruit Gardens
Planting Fruit Trees in your back yard is a wonderful choice. The visions of bushels of home grown apples, cherries and plums can be realized and is being experienced by many successful home orchards. However the reality is that a very low percentage of Home Orchards will be successful, not for any reasons other than poor quality trees to begin with and poor or little practical advice to proceed with through the years.
