Spring holds such beauty to behold. Along with that beauty are the flowers, herbs and foliage that you only see during this time of year. It is ending soon so you might give some thought as to doing some clippings this month.

Many use the foliage and flowers in their workings that are seasonal. If you do not begin a list of what it is you want to trim and dry the moment might pass you by. I know that with all the bad weather we have been having here I have given it as much thought as I would to purchasing New York Yankees tickets. Which I do not think about.

So, it dawned on me that some of the flowers and such that I use will soon bloom and die. Never to be seen again until next summer. I sat down and made a list of what it is I needed. Where did I find these things? In my own back yard. One thing that is a real chore but well worth the trouble is the dandelions. Oh, you see them all over your lawn. Instead of ignoring them, dig a few up by the roots. Use the flower and the root after they have dried. Some yards are abundant with these and a large harvest is in store for you. Plus they are easy to pull up by the root!

Flowers are the same way. Trimming those bushes? Keep some to dry for later on in the upcoming months.

Time is ticking. Get out there and get some fresh air and items you will need later!
