It's snowing like crazy here. It has been for the past half hour. This
is after a week of rain, hail, and tornado warnings. We've covered all
the Asiatic lilies and a few other low-growers with plastic buckets.
Luckily we haven't planted any vegetables yet. I picked over a dozen
irises in bloom, two to three weeks early. Tulips, crabapples, lilacs
are long gone.

Mother's Day will find the garden centers and big boxes filled with
people who left Mother till the last minute plus those who have been
buying and planting since Feb. or March when plants started appearing in
the stores. This climate is so crazy.
