As I did last year, I am once again forcing some springtime into our lives. We went to my mom's over the weekend and I trudged through the several feet of snow in her backyard to her forsythia bush and made some cuttings. I then bought them home and smashed the base of the sticks and placed the in a vase of water. Hopefuly, in a few weeks they will be blooming like nobody's business. I'll keep you posted.
