Spring Fever Has Struck

Since Houston weather is nothing like what normal seasons should be, we are already experiencing the "spring" most other places won't have for at least a month. Of course with spring comes spring fever. Mine started over the weekend when I decided that I couldn't stand to let my plants go any longer without the necessary adjustments.
Some simply had the debris in the top o their pots cleared and a little fresh soil added. My pomegranate tree is now over over six feet tall (approximately the same as my lime and mandarin trees) so it needed to be moved into a larger pot, which opened up its old pot for the Meyer lemon tree. I also bought... Drum roll please... Strawberries! My experiment for the year. Last year my experimental fruit was watermelon which sadly never blossomed, hopefully there will be better luck this year with my strawberries.

Of course I have already forgotten which is which, 

but here are two of my pretty trees, one with blossoms, hooray!

This is my pomegranate tree, I have learned that during winter they look like they have died, 

but you can now see (if you look very closely) that small buds are springing it back to life!

And last but certainly not least are my baby strawberries. I'm so excited, I hope they work out!

 

Also I happily get to say that since planting these we have had a pretty good week for plants. The days have been alternating with rain and sun and will hopefully give them all the little boost they need. I hope that one day soon I can plant some bigger things like apple and pear trees, unfortunately those really need to be put in the ground and I wouldn't want to have to get new ones every time I moved rental houses. On a last note, I happily accept all gardening tips and tricks since I'm only a year into the game!
