"SunLight On the Lawn"

This morning I woke up to sun light streaming through my upstairs bedroom window. Smells of coffee and toast floating up from the kitchen below. . . . Nice. For a moment I was fooled into thinking Spring was here. I roused myself to take a peek outside. Darn, . . . Winter frost sparkled brightly on the lawn, the buds on a venerable Exbury Azalea, so large now it nearly touches the roof line of our porch, are still tight, little balls of promise.

Hello. My name is Espahan. Welcome to my first blog. "Sunlight On the Lawn" is the title of a book by my favorite writer, and garden design guru, Beverley Nichols. If you love all things gardening, peruse and enjoy the words of a consumate, and very opinionated gardener.
