I have expanded my garden empire and all I thought
impossible has suddenly become possible.
I have taken over the front yard and none of the other tenants are
complaining. Why should they? There is about to be a sunflower extravaganza
such as this block has never seen! There
will be bush tomatoes, California wonder peppers and super sweet strawberries
dangling above lemon thyme, Thai basil, chocolate mint and golden sage. I admit a lot could go wrong with the produce
but I will not believe that the tide can be turned on the floral explosion. Despite the slow start, the compost is finally
cooking. When the snails invaded my
newly planted paradise, I fought back. I
won! My hopes are sky high! Spring is upon us and as the days grow longer
with light and possibility, the Russian mammoths are reaching up, up, toward
the sun and sky of this that is Los Angeles.
Let us also hold our heads high and we too, shall prevail!
