I am so tired of grey, dreary skies, frigid temperatures and biting winds  And snow, so much snow covering every inch of the yard!  I’m sick of being trapped indoors by slick sidewalks and icy roads. I desperately need spring to get here so I can dig in the garden. To counteract my descent into the winter blahs, I’ve done what every serious gardener does this time of year. I've been intently studying my collection of favorite catalogs, magazines and websites for new ideas to instantly transform my landscape this spring.

The floral departments of our local grocery stores are all decked out for Valentine’s Day. While shelves are overflowing with gift ideas for that special someone, the real focus is on the flowers. Dozens of samples of gorgeous mixed bouquets are sitting in coolers nudging shoppers to get their orders placed before it’s too late.
