Welcome! Welcome!!
























It's almost meteorlogical spring.


Spring!! What a fabulous word!

I was out snooping around the yard the other morning before work "cuddling the flowers", as my husband says. I think he means coddling, but I digress. Seeing the plants peeking out of the earth I thought to myself about the start of growing season. I was going to name this blog Growing Season but it seems that title might already be taken. So it dawned on me, Growing Susan sounds very similar. And my given name is Susan and this all sounds just too clever and witty and how could I not call this Growin' Susan?? OK. So I guess you had to be there. Sometimes when my genius strikes it doesn't translate so well :) but that's OK. I'm on board with it! So, let the ride begin and I will endeavor to chronicle my growing season and in the process grow a bit myself. Grow, Susie, grow!! Hmmm maybe, "You Grow Girl!" ? Nah.

There's no business like snow business

We are expecting snow tonight.  Snow.  SN*W???    Seriously?
Do you have any idea what the word snow does to the spirits of those who want to get in the garden?  It's not pretty.

I was hoping to get the rest of the flowerbed weeded and mulched but it is just plain too cold.
I brought the Stellas and my Brazilian Rock Rose into the garage.  The BRR hasn't sprouted yet but I have my fingers crossed.  The Stargazer Lily is getting taller and my Ranunculus?  Well.  Nuttin' hunny.  But I remain hopeful.  Gardening teaches one hope and patience.

Once I am ( somewhat ) confident that we are beyhond bad weather I am going to plant some Mexican Primrose seeds and move some of my lilies.
