Today is our official last frost date.  In coastal Virginia, where I learned about horticulture, the frost date is April 15th.  Wow!!!  That is a very LONG month for me.  

 

It is so tempting to plant the garden when the weather starts getting warm.  We have done that:  planted tomatoes in April, and had to go out and cover them with 5 gallon buckets because here came the last frost.  I've planted peppers and eggplants too early too, and they struggle all season.  Best to just wait.  I am learning about patience.

 

Well, we started a couple days ago planting tomatoes, but held off on the peppers and eggplants.  They want HOT weather.  But you can see that they are healthy and ready to go in the ground.  Yay!!!!  

 

 

HAPPY SPRING PLANTING!!!
