Bronze fennel and white lupins were gone in a flash. Some of the stipa tenuissima I didn't sell. I shan't bring grasses next year.<br />Summer? I'm still waiting for spring!

I try to follow his example - nature is very generous!<br />In reality my garden is absolutely scruffy. It looks very weather bashed at the moment, but once growth starts in earnest I love the chaos of it all.Share my Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08817611851604816123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833049860541499858.post-89655784050456740672018-03-14T04:23:36.910-07:002018-03-14T04:23:36.910-07:00I've no knowledge, Donna, but lots of enthusia...I've no knowledge, Donna, but lots of enthusiasm.

It is snowing right now and it seems a very long time until I am able to get some garden time in.

We do go to an herb sale in early May and that is such fun and always well attended. I do, though, have many seeds from my last years plants and I will start those next week when the expected snow melts. Spring is almost here and the best is yet to come.

You could make a living doing that. I'd just go into my greenhouse and putter about. Of course, if it weren't cold and windy, I'd be out in the garden too.donna bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507579686738843451noreply@blogger.com
