What could be a better time to start a garden journal than the spring equinox? Day and night are about equal today, but from now on the light becomes increasingly dominant as it wakes the plants. It's become obvious that spring is here, as the trees begin to bud and the air starts to warm.
Buds on the green Japanese maple... and firewood that's going to make the air warm!
I seem to be having a similar experience too as I make the transition between towns, relaxing into the cozy realization that this is my home. The difference is that there is now actual land, an oven, bathtub, garage, fireplace, space for crafts, no one walking back and forth on a squeaky ceiling all night, no traffic noise, and my only housemates are a happy husband, a pampered gecko, and a bossy fish... it's all the little things that make me blissful! There's a bubbly sensation inside, and all those suppressed gardening/crafting/cooking project ideas are threatening to burst forth at about the same time as the trees explode in leaves.
With that in mind, hello and welcome to Leaves In My Hair! My name is Kendra, and plants are one of my life's greatest joys. If you happen upon this blog, I'd be thrilled if you'd introduce yourself, and even stick around a while to share your own gardening experiences and advice as this journal grows. If you have a blog of your own, what is it about?
