Summer in March

Little breeze, bright sun, 71° and no leaves out on any trees yet -- it was a hot afternoon. It felt like a summer day.

In March.

Of course I picked this hot afternoon to dig out the anemone. 

It came out easily, but I'll likely have to pull runners all summer and keep those in check. 

When I dug it up the soil was bone dry, so I watered the whole garden a ton, cleaned up fallen leaves, and then spread a bag of mulch.

Hot work on a summery feeling day.

Now the space is ready for planting. I'm looking forward to having this pretty Blushing Pink rose outside the window.
