Today was more cleaning. After a year of relative inactivity my body is objecting vigorously but it feels great. Trellises are up for the peas and we have started filling pots for container plants.

Last autumn we planted four blueberry bushes. My neighbor (who is an excellent gardener) tells me that they are a bit of a "keep your fingers crossed" crop for Idaho Falls but I made sure to take care of soil acidity levels when they were placed last autumn and each of them is coming back with buds. Two varieties are necessary for cross-pollination. I sprinkled them with their additive and will hope they continue to do well. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
