It has been a mild week but there has been over 3 inches of rain. The weather gurus tell us that we needed it. We have been experiencing a drought and we have not yet had enough rain to remedy it. It is our rainy season so we will expect it.
The rain has limited gardening tasks this week but I did manage to transplant some onions into my raised beds. They are from Dixondale in Texas. I also started some perennials from seed in my seed starter.
Here are my photos for this week. If you want to see more, drop by tomorrow morning to see the Six on Saturday group. It is hosted by Jim Stephens. Here is the link. https://gardenruminations.co.uk
The pansies survived the cold spell and are beginning to bloom.
Finally, the Lenten rose are emerging.
The Shasta daisies are healthy looking and getting ready for the warmer weather that will be coming in 4 to 6 weeks.
Oops, it seems that I only took five photos.
Here on the left is the resurrection fern on the Post Oak. It is the oldest tree in the yard. The fern greens up after the rain.
And lastly, I found this bug while I was planting the onions. Prehistoric looking creature isn’t it. It was slow moving when I disturbed it.
Happy Gardening!

That bug was quite camouflaged, I didn’t see it at first.
I was working in my raised bed. If it hadn’t moved, I would have not seen it.
That Florida Leaf footed Bug is very unusual looking!
Oh I do like your Resurrection Fern! But I really don’t like that bug! It’s a strange looking bug and has great camouflage.
