Green Beauty

Green plant, shamrocks in bloom, pink shamrocks, After this long, hard winter, are you sick of seeing white on white?  Today for us is a record low high.  It is noon and -7°  F.  In the blue sky, the sun shines brightly down on the white snow.

With spring only three short weeks away, I thought you might enjoy setting your eyes on a Shamrock,  a tender plant well-known for its green beauty.  Not so commonly known are the delicate pink blooms that grace this plant.  The green and pink together cheer the heart as we await the grand awakening of our surroundings with the beginning of springtime.

Card Available in our Store

In our store we have a pencil-drawn shamrock card.  This shamrock is descended from my grandma’s plant.  Visit our store to see it and our other products.

Cheer up, spring is on its way!

    You do such a nice job if keeping your shamrocks pretty! It was fun to see them this weekend :-)
