Anyone who has seen the weeds in my yard in person (or scrolls down to look at the photos) will chuckle to see that my garden has been featured in a British magazine for expats who live in France.
And here is the article itself – probably too tiny for you to read. But never fear! You can buy your own copy!
Living France is the essential guide for anyone who dreams of a new life in France. Published 13 times a year, it is packed with detailed guides to the best locations to start your new life, inspirational stories from expats already living across the Channel and invaluable expert advice on everything from legal and financial issues to property and renovation. Available in selected WHSmith, Sainsbury’s, Tesco and independent newsagents, the magazine is also sold online on www.buyamag.co.uk/France-Magazines or you can take advantage of our subscription offers on www.subscriptionsave.co.uk

But weeds, notwithstanding, I was very honoured to be featured. And the garden is a source of pleasure for me – I love watching everything come up, and tasting the fruits of our labor.
Now in current garden news, the strawberries are ripening.
And the tomatoes are climbing.
The jasmine is weaving.
and the irises are standing.
The calla lilies are debuting (seriously for the first time)
and the peonies are budding.
The sage is flowering
And the roses are opening.
And God is just filling the canvas with something new every day.
Your garden is gorgeous and full of abundant life, Jennie! Congratulations! 🙂

Congrats! Gardening takes hard work and it’s nice to be recognized for it.
Our strawberries are about to be blooming – they need a week or two. They are flowering right now and we’re thinking about how to keep the birds out! Nets? Constant vigilance?

How wonderful! Our garden centers are just getting set up and the leaves are barely showing on the trees here. Spring gets off to a late start but boy, am I ever glad to see it! Your garden is such an inspiration to brown-thumbed me. 🙂

Nice garden, Jennie. Congratulations on the feature. Things are starting to bloom in my garden. Don’t worry about the weeds. They are part of life in the garden.
