Garden fairies here! We are garden fairies and we are pleased to share that our big January surprise project worked! No, our big January surprise project was not to make these snowdrops bloom, though they are lovely and if you look closely at the picture you'll see there are four nice sized bunches of them drifting through the flower bed.

We are garden fairies. We prefer to move about a garden unnoticed, minding our own business. You'll find no sign here that says, "Garden Fairies Live Here." That's just not our style! We prefer more subtle signs that require a little thought and consideration before you realize what they mean. For … [Read more...] about More Signs of Garden Fairies
