daf in snow
As the snow slowly melts, be on the lookout for the emerging leaves of spring flowering bulbs - daffodils, tulips, crocus and more. Fertilize with Plant-tone or Bulb-tone when noticed.

Check stored tender bulbs and rhizomes - dahlias, cannas, gladiolas, elephant ears and more - for any signs of rot. Mushy and soft? Best to discard; and then buy new in spring.

March 20th is the first day of spring (according to the calendar!); only 34 days and counting!
