The Yorkton and District Horticultural Society is still not having meetings, and by this time our meeting season would be just about over as we turn our attention to our gardens! This is almost the time when we would be having our famous spring plant sale. But alas, since there is no easy and safe way to do so, we’ll have to hope for next year instead! But please check out our website at www.yorktonhort.caand see interesting garden photos and news.
I know we’re all eager to get out in the garden. Spring clean-up is done for many gardeners; now we just sit with our basket of seeds at our feet and wait. Which brings to mind the question: when is it warm enough to plant? We’ve probably all heard that saying that we can plant “when it is warm enough to walk barefoot in the garden”. This is, of course, an old wives’ tale, and I would guess it is about someone who has aching feet from getting them chilled!
