Garden daydreams in the snow...

On a day like this, when I can't see my car, let alone my garden, for the snow, it helps to have a place to go.

Susan Harris, who blogs for Homestead Gardens, the lawn and garden center in Davidsonville, takes us on a tour of gardens, and garden blogs, from around the world. And she includes a link to help you find garden blogs right here in the old US of A.

Freda Cameron, a garden and travel writer, takes us on a tour of her garden, with its wonderful fences and gates on her blog, Defining Your Home, Garden and Travel. Check out her previous posts to see the gardens she has toured during her travels.

 

Visit Isabel at Fennel and Fern, a very stylish garden blog from the United Kingdom, and see her collection of snowdrops, which should be emerging just about now across the pond.

And last but not least, join Debra Lee Baldwin for her search for Valentines in the garden.

And stay warm, Garden Variety readers. Buried somewhere under all this snow are seeds and shoots of spring.

Hi Susan,

Thank you for your kind words about my blog. I do hope spring arrives soon for everyone!

I followed the link back here to your blog and love the posts!

Our snowdrops normally would have appeared by now. Maybe April?

About Susan Reimer
Susan Reimer has spent 16 years writing about raising kids - among other topics - in her column for The Baltimore Sun. And every time son Joseph or daughter Jessie passed another milestone - driver's license, college, wedding or a move to a new military duty station - she has planted another garden. Now she will be writing about those gardens - and yours - here on Garden Variety.

Susan isn't an expert gardener, but she wasn't an expert mother, either. Both - the kids and the gardens - seem to be doing well in spite of her.

She lives in Annapolis with her husband, Gary Mihoces, who loves to cut his grass but has noticed that there seems to be less of it every time the kids pass another milestone.
