I am, in fact, still alive! Currently doing my best to deal with all of the... everything. And trying to make myself feel better by planning out this year's garden.

I've planted the first wave of poppies in the flower garden - these are the first generation I've selected for, so I'm excited to see how that goes.

these are some of the fellas they were selected from:

got to get compost and mulch soon, and then prep the raised beds. beans, tomatoes and peppers, and potatoes?

(it's amazing how long seed potatoes can last if you store them right.)

the rose bush is doing fine, but I'm treating to think about actually planting it in the ground.

then the damn wormwood can go in the rose pot.

that thing is at least 10 years old now?

I also have some seeds I bought from the dispensary, for novelty purposes only -- I need to do some research, though, before touching those.

plants!
