After the long winter and all of that snow, we didn't think they would ever come up. We went out on Tuesday and counted 19 emerging through the soil. We will keep you posted about our garden. We could not meet with our friends in Texas, to do our report because they were doing their testing. We hope we can meet this week so we can tell them about the garden.
