It's the middle of May and Spring is busting out all over. Celandine, dame's rocket, columbine, red clover, violets, solomon's seal, and lily of the valley top the list of wildflowers seen in one afternoon in our city neighborhood.
Nature really is out there.
In gardens, bleeding heart, pansies, and candytuft are looking good. The clematis are getting big, and jacob's ladder is just getting going. Everything green is growing. Debuting on the site this month, in honor of Mother's Day, is the Modern Herbalist series. Women everywhere will enjoy hand-made bath salts , candles , and oils , made from essential oils and herbs from your garden.
