| Sweet pea starts January 9 |
Outside it is below freezing, snow is falling like powdered sugar and the foothills, heck the road out front has disappeared in the storm...but inside green life goes on. Earlier this month we started the first seedlings--sweet peas. This has been the brightest January I can remember and it has really boosted the seedlings.

These little guys have never been happier. They really want to jump up and plant themselves in the greenhouse! (LOL--wouldn't that be cool.) But they need to hang on a few more days.

Not even a week later and the seedlings are really filling out. They need to hold out for at least another week until we fire up the greenhouses. They are cold cold cold right now allowing the tulips to have their proper sleep. By Valentine's Day they will be a tropical paradise in the middle of frosty Idaho, full of seedlings and emerging tulip shoots.
