They did great this first winter! They kept producing (albeit some days it was just one egg) and we didn't have to buy any. They are troopers! :-) <br /><br />Looking forward to watching your garden flourish! :-DTracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09910511797194356430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6205621545063667402.post-23161056267323195042021-02-26T14:19:27.572-05:002021-02-26T14:19:27.572-05:00Thanks for cheering the girls on!

They are red through and through, and so sweet and juicy. I have room for a center bed, maybe I'll make them the stars of the garden!daisy ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06129079277073067462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6205621545063667402.post-44082392108527930662021-02-26T14:17:24.503-05:002021-02-26T14:17:24.503-05:00I'm thinking of using something on the south s...I'm thinking of using something on the south side of the bed to sort of shade the Lacinato, as I think it will do better.

Things are just too soggy around here. <br />My vote is "yes" for a strawberry bed unless you have a local farm nearby to pick from. We had 3 berry beds that kept me hopping until they died back. We now have a local farm that puts up a "Strawberry Shack" 3 miles from our house. They sell berries there at a very reasonable price.Tamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06597093453934852571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6205621545063667402.post-24273040432561023382021-02-26T07:45:12.377-05:002021-02-26T07:45:12.377-05:00It's definitely feeling more like spring, and ...It's definitely feeling more like spring, and I've been relishing the days outside. I cleaned up the asparagus patch yesterday, and pruned fruit trees.

The Lacinato doesn't, but that's a lesson learned the hard way! I may leave the Lacinato for spring and fall, and continue with the Siberian for winter greens.

I can just taste those carrots.....I'm able to start some in the fall, allow them to stay under a nice cover of snow all winter and then we get deliciously sweet carrots by the beginning of June. If I didn't start them in fall we wouldn't have them for another month unless winter ends early. So happy about the eggs! Hooray for more daylight! Have a wonderful weekend.Staci Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15067119970666863558noreply@blogger.com
