After patiently abiding the cold winter season, planted bulbs reward us with their lively profusion of color. In charming juxtaposition to a collection of vintage watering cans, a joyful drift of pastel tulips and daffodils welcomes spring with a reassuring sense of renewal.

God has indeed blessed us richly when we can see His beauty pop up from the ground after a cold and often grueling winter !
I have never had a ‘green thumb’, but with bulbs, you really don’t need one! They know what to do, when to do so, and how to “wow” us with their splendor and magnificent colours!
Spring can’t get here soon enough for me – especially after receiving the new March/April issue of Victoria – Spring gardening at it’s finest!
I wish everyone a wonderful and happy Spring !
God bless !
