We have an interesting micro-climate on our land created by being on the south side of a very large river valley. Our land experiences cooler than normal nighttime temperatures, but we warm up quickly in the morning because we face south. We do seem to be having an early spring this year though. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. I love to share my little successes with everyone.

And the cat photo is so cute. I've never seen your moth - it's very interesting. And a baby plum already - wow. Do you normally have them start this early or is this an unusual year?

You grow many of the same plants that I do, so I find it interesting to look at your garden to compare it to mine. Your garden is looking very nice these days.

It's interesting to see your Grand Primo blooming now. Mine are planted in 3 different locations and bloomed a few weeks ago, with the bloom staggered. Good luck with the fruit crop!
