GREEN - Lots of GREEN

By this time of the year here in the Midwest of USA, I like many others, begin to miss GREEN!  Enough of the white.  Snow here & snow there – I say ENOUGH.  So here are photos of GREEN.  It is a relaxing color for the eyes and I would think for the mind.


Lady's Mantle
 PLUS: it is the color for St. Patrick’s Day which is on Friday. 

                                                        So celebrate the GREEN!!!

    1. Happy to know that I am not the only one getting snow. As the saying goes, "misery loves company"! There will be better days ahead - only hope that is soon!

  6. Such wonderful green plants... and I always envy you for your gorgeous lake view. :)
    Here it's snowing now - depressing but not surprising, it can well snow also in April (and May). We are really craving for some green. :)
    Thank you for the lovely post. Have a happy week ahead!

  7. Sara, Thanks for the well wishes for my week. I wish the same to you. I agree that the lake is always a beautiful view from the gardens here. It is like an ocean - really big with so many different moods. I think it is the one thing that makes these gardens stand out - truly very special in all weather, Summer Winter and all seasons.
