Temperature today was in the upper 80's (30C). I am afraid I won't have any radish this year: it starts bolting already, too hot for it to develop the root.

Hyacinth. The smell is charming...

We had a very heavy rains for a few days, and a light frost on March 9th. Tomatoes planted outside are doing well. Temperature fluctuates from 1-2C at night to 25-27C during a day. I need to remove all last year parsley before it starts bolting. 
Planted an artichoke, basil, and lovage.
