Sharing our gardening newsletter here with you today, for growing and planting... flowers and more is very much a creative and artistic act.
As always, apologies to any creators who are also already on our gardening email list and thus seeing most of this yesterday.
When it's something I think iCreateDaily members will enjoy too, it just makes sense to share it here as well. And I can imagine some of you may wish to paint some flowers, such as the amazing fleabane.
SPRING!
SEEING OLD FRIENDS AGAIN
Spring is the garden sweet spot: Before mosquitos and pests take over (or try to), and all the little plants are happily growing. (And we gardeners are happily planting and nurturing them along… like seeing old friends for the first time in a year)!
FRESH AIR, SUNSHINE AND HEALTHY SOIL!
Reveling in these basic and simple delights… and the garden tools that feel good in the hand. Even the tired body at day’s end is like a badge of accomplishment for all that was done.
As you look upon your little Eden, may you see that it is good.
BENEFICIAL WEEDS
Daisy Fleabane - proven (and historical) benefits and uses.
To see all that's possible from one little (weed) plant puts us in awe of this magnificent creation and the incredible resources that go largely unnoticed.
