Emergence

Solomon Seal
We love the excitement of watching to see which perennials will return each spring.  Our daily search for new shoots brings us face to face with the miralce of life.  These Solomon Seal, just pushing up last week, are now a foot tall.   

When Rob got the new asparagus last week I wasn't sure the roots I planted in January were going to sprout and welcomed the chance to maybe replace them.  Today Jerry found several of the thinnest of stalks, maybe 1/10" in diameter.  I think I will go ahead and plant more anyway, since I have them  : )
