Hello Fellow Gardeners,

With all the gardening we talk about on the Daily Weeder, I thought you might be interested to see my own garden! My garden to me is a labor of love, always a work in progress, and keeps me young in mind, body and spirit…well at least in mind and spirit anyway! Hey, gardening in zone’s 3 and 4 isn’t for the faint of heart! Though I spend hours slaving away in the sun, sleepless nights worrying if my plants are going to survive the latest of Mother Nature’s tantrums, and long cold winter months dreaming of Spring, gardening is truly my passion! Let’s take a stroll around my garden and see what’s blooming…

Not to pat myself on the back, but I’ve gotten a lot of compliments on my Hosta garden over the years! I certainly have no problem growing them!

Everybody loves color in the garden, but sometimes I like to experiment with different shades and textures! My Hosta garden is where I do that, and it has grown to be a lovely tranquil place for me to relax or do some light gardening! Plus, since most of the Hosta garden is in full shade, it gives me a place to cool down when that sun gets a little too hot!

One of my daughters favorite flowers is the Allium. Why? She says they are “kooky” looking! And she loves that they last for about two weeks in a vase!

By now, you all know that my favorite part of the garden is my precious roses! Right now my “Rosa Rugosa Magnifica” (top) and my “Mary Queen of Scots” roses are keeping me happy…

I look forward to my Columbines every year. Don’t they remind you of shooting stars?

Bearded Irises can make quite a show! As you can see, I love to get all sorts of interesting colors to give my garden some variation!

Some sweet “Miss Bateman” Clematis peek out in a raised bed…

This is just the beginning of the season! I will make sure to have many more pictures posted from around my garden as all my beautiful plants start blooming! I can hardly wait!

Until Then,

Happy Gardening,

Marie Suzanne
