Plant Update

So, I meant to post this Monday about how my raspberry plant is doing.  Considering the sudden cold snap and now to high winds, it's holding up pretty well.  I trimmed it Monday morning so more nutrients can now go to the living leaves and hopefully make the branches stronger.

Here's what it looks like, after its trim.

While trimming, I noticed one of the stronger branches is half broken.  I need to do some research to see if I can re-attach it or just start a second plant with it.

This morning when I woke up, I noticed several other plants are starting to sprout...

My Oriental Lillies

My tulips

My herbs

It's so exciting to see things start to grow.  Hopefully I can actually keep my herbs around long enough to use them.  Last year didn't turn out so well.  I also got my starter tray set up with roma tomatoes, green beans, green onions, spinach, and cantaloupe.  Two other containers now hold red and yellow onion bulbs.  I timed everything to be ready to transplant once I move back over to Western Washington.  My dad has some garden space, it'll need a little work and TLC to be ready.  I think it'll be a great project for my brother and sister to help out with.
