How Many Times Can You Fall in Love On One Spring Day?
With a heavenly scent, sweet flower or some fabulous foliage? Too many to count if you spend a spring day at a nursery or two. Let the crushes begin. It's a new season and it's time to fall in love again.
I can't walk through the garden section of the local Walmart without falling love! Unfortunately, my heart for enjoying beautiful flowers in the garden often over rules my knees and back in the physical endeavor of getting them in pots and beds!
so pretty...can't wait to be back on the east coast for the next spring. When I see your "new Leaves on the Block" and "on the Street Where I live" I feel like I'm missing out. It's spring in California too of course, but it's just not the same.
Yes, I was just at the local nursery this morning, and had to stop myself from going crazy and buying a bunch of little beauties. we are trying to do more of an edible yard ... but i really love all the blooming spring flowers!
susan..i hope your knees forgive you. (I did some planting myself too today..new job..and I'm not sure any of my body parts want to speak to me right now.) Annie..I'm from New york, but lived some years in Hawai'i and it's strange that I never missed the seasons while I was there. So many people thought I would, but I really didn't, so you're probably not missing out at all. Not sure what California spring means, possibly desert blooms, Santa Ana winds?, but hope you enjoy. Tera..oddly enough I started with vegetables and was only interested in planting flowers for the bees. Now I'm gaga for everything. Hope you have some bumper crops this year.
