Spring Garden Walk

What a difference a couple of weeks makes in the garden. The warm temps (80′s) in March have caused our roses to begin early. I actually pruned most of my roses pretty hard this year and did not expect to see many blooms until late April, yet here they come at the end of March!

If you follow this blog or my antics on Facebook, Twitter or BlogTalkRadio then you know that I take a daily garden walk. I take a few moments each day to check on the status of what’s growing and to have some quiet time with God. Some of the best decisions of my life have been made while walking or working in my garden.

My garden is an ongoing work. I am constantly adding, changing and hopefully improving my garden.

I hope you enjoy this stroll as much as I did. Stay tuned! Can’t wait to do a “Flush of Bloom” video! Woot! Woot!

    Couldn’t tell your from Alabama. lol. Loved your tour. The rock is cool. Also enjoyed the bird sounds. Thanks Chris, felt like I was there. Unfortunately I miss early moring sunrise in the garden, as I leave before 6 a.m.

  4. Dear Chris, I so much enjoyed touring your beautiful rose garden with you! Very inspirational! I need to get to work on my roses now — they are way behind yours, but still ahead of where they normally are for this time of year. Thanks for the tour. P. x
