And look:
The garlic is up!!!!!!! We even have a little wild garlic,
which is rather impressive as none of the garlic went to seed and I REALLY dug this bed up several times after harvesting last year's garlic. Rats--garlic must be pretty hardy stuff. I was sort of hoping I was developing some sort of gardening skills because I was able to get garlic to grow. It's a bit less of an achievement if it's going to be a weed.
And yet another sign of spring:
At the top of the picture, you can see our fence. On the OTHER side of the fence, I've been working to improve the soil because bulbs & other plants need good soil & drainage & depth and all of that--where, by the way, not a single freaking bulb is sprouting. On THIS side of the fence, there's clay covered with gravel. And something is coming up. Apparently the garden has decided to start the humiliation a bit early this year.

Not to be competitive or anything, but after reading your post, I had to check my garlic. Nope, nothing there, but the daffodils are up and the Canada geese are on the wing. Hoping for an early spring!
