Over the past 5 months I have truly enjoyed exploring horticulture with you!  This blog has opened up doors that I had never imagined.  I have grown along with you, and look forward to everything this year has to offer.

Last week I had the pleasure of sitting down with Marjorie Harris, and toured her beautiful garden.  Marjorie has long been my favorite author in horticulture.  It was amazing to be able to sit down and talk candidly about plants and the field of horticulture.   If you haven't checked out her blog and website it truly shouldn't be missed.  (http://marjorieharris.com/)

I have started back to work with the City of Toronto, as a gardener; and also started back at Plantworld in the Perennial department.  Its exciting to see the new plants arrive daily, new varieties, new colours, and new ideas!

This is truly a year of change for me, settling into my career in horticulture.  This blog has taken off and has now been read in 52 Countries around the world, viewed over 4300 times.  The support I have received from family, friends, and strangers alike has been overwhelming and has truly been motivational.  At the end of the season this year, I will make my big move to the west coast of Canada, and settle in to a different world of plants... truly exciting... I can't wait to continue to blossom in the field of Horticulture.  

Exciting News...This past week a publisher contacted me interested in my first book... They have been following the blog and contacted me to discuss my options for publishing.
