Greetings, Garden Friends –

Robin Schachat
There is more than one reason to want your garden to bloom from early spring (or sooner!) until the end of fall (or later!).
First of all, it’s pretty for the gardener and her human visitors. Our spirits are always raised when we see color and life in the garden. Even the most sedate of Japanese gardens (except for the very extreme Zen options) feature at least one significant spot of blossom at all times. Bloom is joyful.
