Making the earth laugh

"the earth laughs in flowers" -e.e.cummings This blog is a journey into that laughter. From my childhood when my job was weeding the dreaded vegetable garden (which I despised with every fiber of my being) to my very early adulthood when I planted my first impatiens (which promptly died) to now - a gardening lover and business owner; gardens have made me feel something. This is my tribute to the hard work, the boring work, the failures and the immeasurable joys of gardening. Yes, I continue to garden...and laugh.

It's February and I am dying for Spring. I have been looking through my garden pictures to keep me going and to give me ideas for this year in gardening. I can hardly wait!

This picture was taken at a client's garden and it just makes me happy to look at the colors and textures.

If you haven't gardened - you should - I'm hoping this will be an inspiration to you. If you do - this is my homage to you and what you do. I would love to hear from you!
