    We are due some cold weather this week (a 'beast from the East' is due) so I'm holding off from sowing seeds for another week. Plenty moving in the gardens though with large swelling buds on the Rhodies and the ceanothus I planted last year are showing new growth. Dicentra is also on the move like yours and if the wind doesn't get it a camelia is about to bloom.
