Spring is almost over and summer is just around the corner. Summer vegetables are the best. To name a few: new potatoes, green beans, beets, collard greens, fiddle heads (my favorite) beets, cucumbers, eggplant, Vidalia onions, peppers (green, yellow and red), squash, tomatoes, lettuce, these are just a few healthy vegetables to start your summer feast. Watermelon for dessert is the best. Put on your grilling hat and grilled hamburger, hot dogs, fresh caught fish and your meal is complete, filling, healthy and delicious.

Asters in double blue, Bleeding Hearts, Bishop Weed, Bell Flower White, Arctic Queen, Daylily, Foxglove are so beautiful and come in many different sizes and looks. Rose bushes one of the most popular plant come in many sizes, colors and are a hardy winter plant. The colors are just awesome. Fruit trees as well flower are beautiful. Apples, Cherries, beautiful large Fig Tree leaves keep you in suspense… when are they going to produce their wonderful fruit. Evergreens withstand the cold weather and look amazing during the spring and summer.
