Spring is Blossoming
Updated: Mar 8, 2021
There is nothing more beautiful than watching Spring flowers come to life after a long dormant winter. Each day brings new beauty. As we approach the Spring season, we want to help our community reveal the beauty of Spring. We are asking our members to donate flowers if you are able. We would like to arrange beautiful flowers around our key areas, such as road signs and around our pools.
When purchasing flowers, it would be wonderful to get perennial flowers that rebloom each year. Perennials last for three or more years, whereas annuals bloom for one year. Some beautiful options according to https://gardentherapy.ca/hardy-perennials/:
