It’s that time of year again. A time to dream about the garden! Many people begin cleaning their homes but my mind travels to the garden. I am not a master gardener, but I love digging and planting and waiting to see what comes up! This year I am planting with my niece in mind. She is getting married in August and I love the idea of snipping off blooms for her center pieces!
I picked up some seeds at the nursery today and will place an order at Burpee for some fancy zinnias!
HOORAY for SPRING!!!! Rocks in my shoes, dirt in my hair, hahaha! FUN in the sun!
…Okay, so we are expecting snow tomorrow and Monday… but I am already growing flowers in my dreams.

I understand just how you feel about the creative potential of the soil, Leslie! I put kale, broccoli and lettuce in the garden two weeks ago and now with all the rain we’re having, I’m so glad I took advantage of those two dry days to get out in the dirt. Like you several years ago, now, I planted hydrangeas in the fall so that when July came, my son and his bride could have both blue and greenish-white blooms for their tables. They were NOT disappointed. And seeing my Chinese nieces as flower girls prompted a watercolor/conte drawing that became the cover for their memory book called, “Daughters of China: Sisters in America.” (I saw your celebration bouquet on Kevan’s post and just had to offer my congratulations also!)
Gretchen! A fellow gardener and artist!!! YOur flowers sounded so beautiful. I LOVE hydrangeas… not sure if my thumb can grow them but I am willing to try! Would love to see your drawing. There is nothing like working hard in the garden and then sitting in it!!! I am making plans to have more sitting places this year. I have a lot of shade so a garden out back is always a challenge! Great to meet you!!! -les
