Is that going to be a year-round thing; or is it just the season for it?

We've got snails and slugs year-round, although just like everything else, Spring is the time for multiplying. I, uh, was being lazy by planting before I put out beer-traps. So, I really should have been that surprised.

I know, I know. I've brought this on myself.

On a bright side, I am thrilled to announce I noticed just yesterday that our Banana has sent up it's first bloom (it has been three summers since it went in the ground)!

I hope we actually get a warm enough summer to have bananas by the end of it.
