This time of year can be so frustrating for me. I can feel the spring flowers, I know they are almost here, but in truth it’s a big almost. There are so many things I rely on in my garden. These elements are used weekly to make my designs special, unique, and artistic. From flowers to foliage’s I am desperate for the things from my garden.

Yesterday the wholesaler told me the spring flowers were 3 weeks behind. Yes I know that, I can look outside and see that. Everything is almost ready. Didn’t the lilac, viburnum, tea roses, and spirea, know I needed them this weekend. When I go to the Leesburg Flower and Garden show, I love to take MY flowers. I bet they all bloom on a weekend I don’t need them. That is the challenge of what I do!!!
