More sprouts

The first of the peppers have begun to sprout. I was worried that I would not have enough tomatillos but I have about 45 or so, and ... that should do! Rick C has an interesting plan for how to train them up poles then back down over a cone of wire. This should keep them up and dry and well ventilated, plus it will make them easy to harvest.

Peas are starting to set up. Lettuces are ready to eat. Romaines are recovering from transplant and growing.

It's raining again, which is great, but I hope it stops for Titus and Jane's wedding in two weeks.

In bloom around Chico now:
Almost finished: quince, daffodils
Full bloom: almonds, cherry, purple plum, magnolia, tulips, crocus, daphne
