What lovely green you've shared with us. Many of the plants in your photos also grow in my yard, but somehow you've made them look way more fabulous than mine. Is it the gardener or the photographer? Both, I suspect.

Do I sound like a fan? I am.
It makes me want to get out there with my camera and shoot ferns till I can't hit the button anymore. But there isn't any green yet...sigh.
The next best thing to spring, that's what this post is.

Andrea, thank you. How kind. Good luck with the collages ... they are fun and very addictive!
Thank you, p3chandan. I had great fun creating this post.
I'm honored, Carol. Thank you for the lovely comment.
In the garden, green is my favorite color too, Tatyana.
Thank you kind, Jill. Ferns are me ... I can never have too many (and I have lots)!
Aw, how lovely, dear Jen. As you can see, I'm reaching back in the archives for this post, a much needed change from the sea of white surrounding me. Plus, it WAS Superbowl Sunday ...
Green rules.
Thank you, Rosey, and yes, enough white but afraid we are still in the midst of winter's white offerings. I adore my hostas! Can never have too many :) Do hope you are feeling better.
My pleasure, Linda. Hum, romantic green ... like it!
Congrats on the new grandson. Is this your first? They will completely steal your heart away...forever.
Thank you, dear Jodi. With so much on your plate, you must be exhaused yet joyful holding your new book. So happy for you :)
Thanks Lindalou ... this is my 3rd grandson who has captured my heart. The other 2 are his older brothers (2nd & 3rd grade) We are all ecstatic!
Ha, ha, I didn't even catch the intent here till I read Donna's comment:) Hope you and your family enjoyed the Super Bowl!
Can't believe you're a grandmother...looking good.
That might be my favorite garden too, Rose. I love a green garden!
Patsi, you are a dear and thank you. I'm as old as dirt! I do have a lovely hosta collection ... I love them and resist ... hostas are addiction, you know :)
