"Happiness held is the seed; happiness shared is the flower." John Harrigan It is that time. The seed catalogs are starting to arrive in the mail. We are starting to get out the pencil and paper to start our draft of what to plant where in the garden this season. Something to think about in that planning is winter. What do you want to look out at during the winter months? Each season I plant sunflowers and zinnias, I leave them in the garden during the winter for the birds and other critters surviving the winter. I also enjoy looking out at what the snow has created on the plants. As we wait for spring.. let us enjoy the beauty of winter in our gardens. Watching the birds eat the seeds, woodpeckers peck on our stems of the sunflowers and those bunnies who all of a sudden are cute. If you had a real Christmas tree this season, think about placing it in the garden for a touch of color, protection and place to feed the wildlife in your yard.
