My Fuchsia
I consider Spring has really started when it is warm enough that I can put my Fuchsia outside.

My update about my radish and peas during a very cold period in March which I knew was coming. In short, insulation works. See details in the rest of this post.
Last year, I lost a lot of my early garden planted seedlings due to a late March cold spell. Decimated my radish and peas.
Looks like we will have another late March cold snap this year as well.
I sow almost all of my plants in trays as starters. Any time of the year. And I also like to reuse things when I can. So for some seeds I reuse egg containers to start the seeds.
February all too often is really unpredictable. And when it gets nasty, it becomes a very cold month here. A real witch to deal with.
My leeks are nearly all harvested. But they are still producing even now in January. Despite the cold, and despite the snow.
It is January. It is cold. Temperature was -12°C (10°F) last night. And it has been snowing. The garden looks bleak.
The garden at the end of November is still producing.
