I too love gardening. I especially enjoy planting flowers but years ago I did lots of vegetables too. It’s such great therapy getting into the dirt and nurturing plants and watching them produce. It’s really nice to see everything starting to bloom this spring. It does my soul good.

I haven’t been on this forum in a while, will be celebrating 3 yrs sober this June! In the last two years my biggest passion has been returning back to nature :blush: here is a view from my back window today, Colorado style. My tulips hopefully made it out alive!

Wow what a sight. Beautiful though and I’m sure your tulips will survive. I’ve been sober 5 days now and feeling really good. I have to say so far I have more energy, better sleeps, more enthusiasm, focus better and I like how I’m feeling so with those positives in mind I will continue 1 day at a time.
I’m in sunny phoenix arizona now and everything is blooming. So wonderful.

Finally the weather is a bit nicer. Supposed to go up to 14°c this afternoon (57°F). Still rush of frost so we’re getting some snap peas ready in coco planters to transplant later into my garden boxes. My little helper!

I miss all my wild columbine where I use to live in Durango. But I planted these last year and they are looking pretty good.

We started cleaning up our garden after five years of neglect due to back injuries, depression, and anxiety. Had to take a break until the damn black flies are done, ugh. scratchscratch Hopefully after some heat and sun this week we can get back at it. It really is therapeutic. :slight_smile:

The lilac didn’t flower much this year but it is a must have for every garden. Just delightful.
