I'm my mothers daughter, endlessly delighted by gardens and plants. While my Mom has a degree in landscape architecture and can keep finicky plants blooming, I think I could kill a cactus. I'm hoping that someday with practice {and patience} my yard with flourish like hers! Until then, I'm exceptionally thankful that spring has brought life to my yard without me doing a thing.

PS- Could I love living in the South any more? February and the plants are blooming is something this Chicago girl can really appreciate!
