Garden Photo of the Day

Cheer up, spring is around the corner!

Lilian Ho shares her inspiration for spring dreaming – photos from her garden in full bloom last season!

"I am sitting home listening to the rain drops (a lot of them at this time of the year in our region – Vancouver, BC) and dreaming about the up coming planting season. Here I am looking through my 2015 garden to cheer myself up. I hope this will cheer every gardener up as well. I am on a small plot so I invaded the city boulevard and neighbor's yard on vegetable plot. I meanly grow showy stuff and I am a bit far from foliage after almost 25 years of gardening. The photos were taken in May and June of 2015."

    Thanks for sharing your photos Lilian. Your gardens are lovely and lush. The roses are beautiful and healthy. The Japanese maple is striking beside the deep pink blossoms. I garden in zone 4 and my beds are full of color also. Just wanted you to know one more gardener found your wonderful photos. Carol Jean
