Starting a Garden

For a while now I have been thinking about starting a garden.  With the warm weather coming so early this year I guess my thoughts have been on flowers and gardening.  On my way home from work last week I stopped by the home and garden center to see what they had.  I knew there were a couple of things I had to take into consideration before starting up.

I wanted to start up with some flowers that would bloom for this season.  I didn’t want to wait  a whole year before seeing the results.  I also wanted to plant some fruits and vegetables as well.  I was thinking about tomatoes and watermelon.  I wanted to do a whole bunch of things but knew that as a beginner I had to take it slow and be patient.  My patience has paid off.  I noticed the bluebonnets that I had planted have already begun to come to surface.  They are the same flower that First Lady Barbara Bush had planted around Texas.  I was surprised and shocked at how easy it was and I am ready to run out to the home and garden center again for my next purchase.
