Thank you! How Iโ€™d love to see their farm! Been ordering from them for 20 years. Expecting this yearโ€™s order in a week or two. Canโ€™t wait. Great company.

Must be so hard for you.
Do something special for yourself and take good care.

Will plant more Coneflowers this year. So many colors now. So easy to grow and long blooming. Starting to prep the gardens but still
cold. Tips of Spring bulbs starting to show.

I had a difficult time getting hellebores to come back when I first started planting them.
Tried lots of different spots in the garden and finally found a spot near
our house in dappled shade and itโ€™s worked for about 10 years now.
Good luck and donโ€™t give up. Beautiful plants!

Just looked it up and there are 9 places in the world named New England. I need to be more specific in the future. Typical American assuming thereโ€™s only one!

Great idea! Always works for me. I like to visit garden centers a little out of my way in the winter. Iโ€™ve found some gems and a visit on a gloomy day really brightens my mood.

๐ŸŒฑThis winter wreath on our front door was made from an artificial greens wreath. I added eucalyptus, berries etc for subtle color and interest. It holds up well in winter storms. Soon it will be replaced by a wreath with a hint of Spring. More snow coming tonight. #Gardening

Thank you! Good of CByou to take the time. I did look into two dahlia society sales (another kind person suggested) and Iโ€™m excited to go!

Yes Oriental lilies. I love them too. Have more in different gardens. These are 3 yrs old. About 5โ€™ tall. Bloom mid August till mid Sept here in New England. Get some-theyโ€™re not too expensive and last for many years.
