And I do mean FLOWERY! I was digging through my photo files a couple of days ago, when I came across this shot of one of the large perennial beds at the Silver Springs Botanical Garden here in Calgary, photographed on a trip I took out there in July of last year. A sight for winter-weary eyes, that’s for sure!

      We’re still buried under snow and the windchills have been extreme for March – but it’s cheerful to look at photos and dream!

    This picture reminds me that it’s not just the warmth — It’s also the colour I miss.

    At first sight I thought you had the most beautiful yard ever and you were soon going to have a visitor, me. ๐Ÿ™‚ I love this garden and it inspires me to think about what I want to do this spring. Yes, it’s just around the corner after this next week of snow blows away. So cheerful.
