I also planted another blueberry bush today .. I found it on clearance for 5 bucks .. Now to decide where I want to plant a few flowers I bought .. I sure hope this season is a good one

I can't wait to have something to take pics of Yes there were about 10 blueberry bushes on the shelves .. this one was there because it didn't have many leaves but the buds are there probably got miss handled .. the other ones got too much frost from the looks of them .. all black tipped .. I didn't want to take a risk .. I planted quite a few of the Blue potatoes .. I can't wait to try them .. Very interesting

Sounds great Rita! I hope your blue taters do well. My ghetto garden is coming along. The only thing i have in the ground right now is a row of broccoli in one of my raised beds. I'm keeping my eye on the weather - waiting to make sure its ok to plant. I'll be going with my usual "bulk" items of green bush beans and assorted maters. I'll probably also put in a row of acorn squash as well as a few hills of cucumbers. I hope to plant within a week or so. You never can tell with this Michigan weather.
