Other March Developments
My Gooseberries, Strawberries, and Currants are beginning to develop fruit. The Redbuds, Albizia, Che, Jujube, and Pawpaws are leafing out as well. There are a lot of exciting things going on in the garden...

What's blooming in April 2012
While inspecting my plants I noticed some have already started to bloom. The strawberries are putting out flowers and fruit already. My Black Velvet Gooseberries and Red Currants have little flowers, as do my raspberries. Since this is the first year I planted all of these I didn't expect much to happen, it's a pleasant surprise. As far as wild plants go I've notice the Elderberries and Pineapple Weed putting out blooms.
