May Days



At the risk of alienating my dear Chicago friends, I’ve changed my moving-to-Nashville blog to a Nashville garden blog. Now, as they sit in the 50-degree weather, they can read about how I ate my first blueberry from my garden on MAY 22!

Seriously, things have already come and gone in the garden this year: irises, which I did not plant (they were here, state flower of Tennessee), peonies, etc. The magnolia is from a tree I added.



I’ve been pleasantly surprised by how many plants I moved from Chicago are thriving. the cheddar cheese flower I bought with Judy last year just popped. The clematis is breathtaking.
