Pirms februāra beigām pārbaudiet, vai ķiploki ir zemē. Sadaliet sīpolus atsevišķās krustnagliņās un stādiet ar smailiem galiem uz augšu, tā, lai gals būtu tikai pārklāts ar augsni. Novietojiet tos 15 cm attālumā viens no otra rindās, kas atrodas 30 cm attālumā viens no otra saulainā vietā, vēlams ar labi drenētu augsni. Make sure you stay on top of weeds as garlic dislikes competition. Plant onions and shallots. February is an ideal time to start a bird table or to put up a feeder as the birds now may be having a hard time finding food. They will also appreciate a source of unfrozen water. Prune your apple and pear trees toward the middle of the month, leaving peach and plum til spring growth is visible. Spring is just around the corner so plan now for next month’s sowing. If you haven’t begun chitting your potato seeds, do so now.
The day is ending,
The night is descending;
The marsh is frozen,
The river dead.
Through clouds like ashes
The red sun flashes
On village windows
That glimmer red.Henry Wadsworth Longfellow,
Afternoon in February
The February born will find
Sincerity and peace of mind;
Freedom from passion and from care,
If they the Pearl (also green Amethyst) will wear.
If apples were pears
And peaches were plums
And the rose had a different name.
If tigers were bears
And fingers were thumbs
I’d love you just the same.Anonymous
