I have always loved gardening and flowers, in fact I used to own a floral shop. Our summers are short here so I spend as much time outside as possible then. I have a German Shepherd and a cat that like to sleep in my flowerbeds. I have been gardening since I was little, I grew up on a farm and we had a huge vegatable garden. Now I mainly stick to flowers!
