I planted some seeds inside today. I think it's kind of late for that but my philosophy is better late than never. :-) Last year I planted the seeds inside in early April. I didn't get around to it this year until today.

I don't know what to expect from these seeds. Some of them are ones I had left over from last year and some are ones Mom gave me that she bought while she was in the states last year. Some are flower seeds and some are vegetable seeds. Some of them are pretty old, but I guess we'll see what happens.

I also took some cuttings from some geraniums that I had in the house today. The geraniums were ones that I took from the church flower bed in the fall. I noticed them in the church flower bed and asked if they were going to take them inside. I heard you could take them inside and have them as house plants. They said they weren't planning on doing that but I was welcome to take whatever I wanted. I noticed three beautiful colored geraniums there so I took one of each. Well, I had great intentions of taking good care of them all through the winter, but it didn't pane out. Today I noticed that there was still a few green stems on them, in spite of my neglect, so I decided to take some cuttings from them and see what happens. I dipped the tip of the cuttings in rooting medium and then planted them in small potting plants that can be placed directly into the garden. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Well, that's the extent of my gardening activities today. I'd love to hear what you're doing in your garden.
