Re: What's blooming in your garden?


Lois,
You and anyone else publishing a garden blog should contribute to Garden
Bloggers Bloom Day, which was started by Carol of May Dreams Gardens over a
year ago. The "rules" are included at the end of February's entry:
http://maydreamsgardens.blogspot.com/2008/02/garden-bloggers-bloom-day-february-2007.html

Basically, you write a blog post about what is blooming on the 15th of every
month, or thereabouts. Then you leave a comment on Carol's Bloom Day post
giving a link to yours. This is a good way to find new garden blogs--and to
help other garden blog readers find you. Visit a few of the entries and
leave a comment if you feel so moved. It is very much appreciated and almost
always reciprocated.

Even if you don't have time to regularly visit other garden blogs or leave
comments, spending the time to post and visit for this one event is worth
the investment of time.

Kathy
