播种正式开始. 月中或一旦日子从狮子变成羔羊, 种植蚕豆, 早期豌豆, 红萝卜, 生菜, 菠菜, 沙拉叶, 韭菜和甜菜. 种植菊芋块茎 – 将它们埋入 1 英寸深，相距 12-18 英寸 – bearing in mind that they like to spread and will do so like wildfire unless you dig up every last one at harvest time. Plant asparagus crowns now in well-drained soil.
Now is the time to prepare the ground for French and runner beans. Any effort in this direction will pay off handsomely in the days to come. Dig a trench a minimum of a spade’s depth and put in a generous layer of wellrotted manure or compost. Do the same for courgette plants.
Plant out your early potatoes at the end of the month – or if you haven’t already done so, start chitting your seed potatoes – put them in a light, cool place with the end showing the most ‘buds’ uppermost – an old egg box is ideal.
There is nothing to stop you from getting ahead with the summer crops – sweet peppers, tomatoes, aubergines and salads can all be planted inside now.
Daffodils,
That come before the swallow dares, and take
The winds of March with beauty.威廉·莎士比亚
Who in this world of ours their eyes
In March first open shall be wise;
In days of peril firm and brave,
And wear a Bloodstone to their grave
It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade.
查尔斯·狄更斯
A little madness in the Spring
Is wholesome even for the King.Emily Dickinson
