Has Spring REALLY Sprung? Time to Tend Your Spring Garden!

I know personally that some gardeners prefer to leave things cozy and covered longer, and others like myself, who obviously have garden OCD can’t help themselves and start cleaning right away. I got a bit of a surprise this year with 6 inches of snow on April fools day, but nothing saw any damage and it melted quickly.
