Hydrangeas are magical. With soil adjustments, you can turn pink blooms blue and vice versa. Even more fascinating, different soil pH levels can create a mix of purple, blue, and pink blooms on the same bush. Hydrangeas do a blossom job adding color to outdoor spaces!

As the earth warms and we venture outdoors, the urge to grow sends many to garden centers and nurseries. Packets of seeds and rich soil fill the carts, allowing ambitious gardeners to nurture sprouts into seedlings. Flats of colorful flowers and vegetables tempt shoppers, quickly adding vibrancy to garden beds where dragonflies and bees play. Others choose to cultivate indoors, where herbs and houseplants adorn windowsills and sunny corners. From fresh thyme to palm fronds, to tomatoes and petunias, a green thumb and a little time can make us all feel like we have a growing personality.
