Secrets of the Flower
Each spring we look forward to seeing what will grow first in our gardens. Will it be the wild strawberries, or maybe the daffodils in March? If you look closely into the mess of weeds that inevitably grow first, you may find the first flowers of spring starting to grow, whispering about what they saw over the winter.
