Plant something to replant outside when it get's warmer

This is the last week in Lent. In a few more days we will celebrate Resurrection. But today it is still Lent. A time of reflection, anticipation and sobriety. A time when, in our climate, there begins to be a re-birth. Spring begins to awaken from the slumber of winter. White and brown and gray give way to blue and green. The color of many flowers begin to appear.

So in this last week of Lent, maybe it would be good to plant something to celebrate. Flowers, vegetables, herbs.
These plants can help us mark what we confess on Easter. That there is new life! There is new Creation. God is still working in this world!
What can we plant to celebrate?

One of my co-workers has lined his office window with garden seedlings (and I truly mean lined - two tiers on the bottom level and even more on the first crossbar of the window) ... what an inspiration to take the plunge and get going myself!
