nature's beauty.'

| Bougainvilla |
I recently had the pleasure and privilege of traveling to St.Lucia.
So today, as I look out my window to a cold, blowing snowy day I thought I would brighten yours by sharing some of the islands beauty.

I consider this a perfect day to look through gardening magazines and books or maybe to scan the internet for plants and ideas for the garden. Not only will it cheer you up but you will be prepared when spring decides to show up and you can get out into the garden.

| Lollypop |
Some of these plants such as the Bougainvilla and Lollypop plant can be grown as annuals so, if you don't live in a tropical climate, don't forget to check out the tropical section of your garden centre when looking for something unique for the garden.

So don't get discouraged when you look outside, consider it a snow day for doing nothing but dream of sunny days to come.
It is only 42 days until spring and if you think how fast the days fly by that is not that far away.
