A Gardener’s Pictorial Journal

~ Flowers, Gardening, Spring, Summer, Sunshine Cottage, Wildflowers

Hello sweet friends! With February’s soon arrival (Thursday), I am thinking about gardening and springtime planting!

“There is none like you, O Lord; you are great, and your name is great in might.”
‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭10‬:‭6‬ ‭ESV‬‬

It was so exciting to receive my delivery of Johnny’s seeds last week…zinnias, sunflowers, snapdragons, cosmos, hybrid marigold, and butterfly/hummingbird mix!
Photo journaling is the easiest way to keep me organized with what has been planted and whether it was a success or failure. Grab a cup of coffee or tea and join me as I peruse 2023’s garden!

Six of the top eleven are Tablescape Blog Hops, two are Monday Morning Blooms, two are Tea on Tuesdays, and one is most special!
