Although considerably later than other years it's finally that refreshing time again when the Garden Centers are flourishing with pansies in their full glory.
The weather forecasters are promising moderating temperatures so we felt it was an ideal time to go in out of the cold and start planning our spring gardens. Just being inside this cozy garden centre puts a positive input on a chilly day.
Could this possibly be one of the last rose bouquet of summer? OOPS where is my optimism....on occasion we have had roses competing with poinsettias for Christmas.
