I'm so excited this year. I just wanted to share what's been going on with me.

I used to post about my garden over at my Rose Cottage blog but we have since moved from zone 3 in Northwestern Ontario to Zone 5-6 in Nova Scotia. We now have a 4 acre farm and I can't wait for spring to come to start gardening.

I am a little sad that I'll never get to see my peonies flower and that I didn't get to bring any of my plants with me. But I'm bursting with excitement at planning the new garden. I've already ordered a bunch of stuff; weigela, hydrangea, wisteria, butterfly bush, magnolia etc.

The property was a blank slate. We added some paddocks out back for our animals and had the front ploughed for our market garden. I have a 40x60 or so area directly out back for flowers and fun. I want a play area for the kids, an entertaining area for guests and lots and lots of flowers!
