Meanwhile, I lug my little bucket and dole out the water as measured by the coffee can. The transplants are looking great! I concentrate on the containers I planted earlier, watering carefully until the roots stretch deeper and the water holding polymer has absorbed its fill and can begin to do its job.

Here are some sources for good cultural information about some of the plants I've mentioned, to help you grow them well at home, along with links to some photographic spring garden tours and galleries of spring blooming plant shots to either admire or inspire -- from gardens both public and private. I hope you enjoy them!
