Welcome..
As a gardener, I believe you know spring is a great season for your garden to grow plants, flowers, vegetables and fruit. However, before growing new plants, your yard needs maintenance after the long winter. Hence, get your landscape off to the best start with these hints and tips for the early spring.
Survey the yard. Make not of tree limbs that should be removed or cabled, especially those that overhang structures. Hire an arborist to maintain large trees if necessary. Cut down last year’s perennial foliage and toss it into the compost pile. Rake mulch from beds planted with bulbs before foliage appears, and refresh mulch in other planting areas after soil warms. Check fences, steps, and pathways for disrepair caused by freezing and thawing.
Check soil PH with a soil tester, taking several samples from different planting areas for an accurate reading. Enrich soil as necessary: add dolomitic lime to raise the PH or elemental sulfur to lower the PH.
Prune trees and shrubs. Remove dead, damaged, and diseased branches from woody plants. Thin and trim summer-blooming shrubs such as butterfly bush, hydrangea, and most roses, except for old-fashioned once bloomers. Prune cold-damaged wood after plants resume spring growth. Prune spring-blooming shrubs and trees after flowering.
Prepare new beds. Clear the planting area as soon as soil can be worked, removing sod or weeds and debris. Spread a 4-inch layer of compost or well-rotted manure and any amendments over soil, and cultivate it to a depth of 10-12 inches with your garderning tools.
Choose a cool, cloudy day to plant new trees, shrubs or perennials if you want. transplant container-grown plants anytime during the growing season except midsummer; be sure to water them thoroughly. Sow seeds of cool-season flowers like poppies and calendula, or vegetables such as spinach and parsley.
Hope these tips can help you to refresh your garden in the early spring.

I love the cottage garden look, noticed a foxglove growing in my clematis pot, almost in flower now....plenty of brambles, Ive been trying to tame them, needless to say a Bramble won't be tamed. The raspberries have migrated out of their pots so they've had to be tied back this year.

Yes they thought I had autism,then it was asbergers,then ADHD,but I have none of them,just a high IQ and Synesthesia..not including my given PSI gifts though,my anxiety issues were to do with my body adjusting to this planets atmospheric conditions as a walk-in...you need to read Michael Newtons books in it he speaks of dreams & visions,fears,& body markings that all stem back to past life traumas..I'll add in the the reincarnation group for you..

Flowers remind me of the beauty and brevity of life. They teach patience as you await some to bloom, enhancing their beauty. And then they're gone.
Moral of this story: Enjoy every single second of this life. Embrace the beautiful parts, don't stress the areas awaiting to bloom...enjoy the process. We are but a breath, so treasure each one.'
~ Sanjo JendayiSounds like you had so much freedom, but then lots of things to overcome, so you became You Vlada. I used to dream I was trying to escape from a fire when I was little, often wondered if this was a past life recall. I had battles with tigers as I grew older. All these things teach us and form us to discover the entireness of our being

Yes those are drone flies on those leaves,often confused with Horse-flies and deer flies that lay those tiny wee white eggs on horses legs,...Fright you say,geepers I must have almost given her a heart attack many times over,l assure you, lol I was a wee toad and just a whirl wind ball of life & fun when I was young & always out in nature,running with no restrictions,often taking my cloths off & running naked with not a care or fear in the world,...but yet bring me inside the house it was a different story however, I was overly sensitive frightful and suffered major over stimulative anxiety attacks as sensory overloads raced through my body it was horrible..the only way she could calm me down was to put me in the bath as the water talked to me...hense even these days I spend a lot of time in the shower even at work luckily..I can handle it to some degree these days though being I know and understand when I feel it coming on,so I can block it in its tracks..but as a kid I had no idea what was happening to me..
Multi Dimensional Reality
The world as you know it - all that you see, taste, feel and touch, comprises only about 5% of all of the stuff of the universe. The other 95% is what we have considered "nothing" or the "firmament" or dark matter or the heavens or mystic Other Worlds. This 95% is multi-dimensional and consists of potential realities that may be perceived.
A single thought...a mere whisper, ...... barely upon a breeze that catches a spark... all is tinder before the firestorm... and yet.
ONLY that whisper
ONLY that thought
the world is forever changed beyond the fears and dreams of cardboard men.
Freedom and change starts within:
It is encouraged by truth and courage of people who love
Built by the respect of true beings standing as one before each other.
Lets us cross every man made borders
without fear stare into eyes and hearts of all our brothers and sisters: within our words without shouting,or force to hold each to our truths; and let us without fear freely share what works...
