signs of spring.

Garlic does really good in this part of Southeast Alaska.  Says a friend and according to my Gardening Southeast Alaska book.  Last fall we planted three different types of garlic: Polish softneck, Purple Glazer and some other (?) variety.  This is our first experiment with garlic growing. Today I was really thrilled to go out and see the garlic is actually growing! :) Yay! Hopefully the end results are as good :) 

The only down side is that we have the garlic growing in the green house.  I should have planted it outside :(  We are thinking about what we should do with all the tomato plants we have started.
