This was great weather for Yardening. I'm having to teach my iPhone that word. Big Grin

It was cool enough that I didn't get hot and sweaty when I was working hard outside.

I planted the last of the tulips that were waiting for a container to be emptied. The tulips had been inside the whole time but the bulbs looked beautiful and healthy.

I finally got a giant alocacia inside, and while I was digging it up, discovered that the ornamental sweet potatoes that had been in the same container had made huge tubers! I don't do well with overwintering and growing them in the spring. If some of you lived closer, I'd drop them by your house!

Here are the sweet potatoes.
