The Happy News is... We still have a month of spring left!!! Most of us think that summer starts when school
lets out! But according to the calendar the first day of summer is June 21st. So we have 30 more days to enjoy
the spring of 2008! Which in my humble opinion has been the best spring we've had in a long time. It's been
mild and gradual with enough rain to get things growing and blooming but not bad storms to tear things
up. Last week we worked in our yard quite a bit. I planted annuals in the front just some petunias and
geraniums but it keeps the color going now that the tulips have gone and until the other perennials start to
bloom. Our poppies are blooming and a plant I brought up from my Mom's back door garden that we called
spiderwort but I'm not sure that's what it is. I had brought some in for Mom from a roadside ditch. It has
grown more robust in a cultivated setting and very pretty I think. We have rose buds coming on and my
hollyhocks are just about ready to bust out any minute. I also have lavender by the front walk and chocolate
mint as ground cover so our garden has some sweet smells to enjoy too. Bob has really helped make my
gardening easier by putting down lots of wood chip mulch keeps the weeds down and almost eliminates that
chore! I also planted my big hanging basket with annuals and the one on the porch with a blue flowering
vine. Lee planted the rest of the outdoor pots with seeds so we will have some things to tend and watch
grow throughout the summer. I was most anxious about the butterfly bush that I planted last year. It
seemed like it was never going to start growing and I was afraid that it didn't survive the winter. But at long
last it has started to grow and I'm thrilled! If you detect some passion in my writing about my garden you would
be right. You just can't take the “country” out of the girl. I still love digging around in the dirt and growing things .
Thanks , Dad for instilling that love of the land in me. I'm happy that I have passed this happy trait on to my
girls too. Lee has her own flower corner of the back yard and Jill is more of a cooks gardener. Her strawberry
bed that she planted last year is just loaded with blooms soon to be berries-- Can't wait! So Dear Readers, find
something in nature to enjoy in the last month of spring; plant some flowers, sit out doors and watch the
birds, take a walk and enjoy the plants in your neighborhood, blow bubbles,visit the Farmers Market or your
favorite plant nursery (Muhalls, maybe),breath deeply and be thankful for all things “spring”. You can see some
of my plant varieties pictured on my blog. http://21stcenturyavonlady.blogspot.com/.
