Spring has Sprung in Colorado Springs!

I don’t know what the weather is like in your neck of the woods but out here in Colorado it has started to turn beautiful and springtime has always been my favorite time of the year here. Weather in Colorado Springs where I live can be crazy to say the least and early spring snow is still a realistic possibility. This fact always gets in my head on when to plant my flowers in the front of my house so that they don’t die before the summer even gets started. This year and most years I plant them on Mother’s Day weekend and I’m usually safe.


In a couple weeks over the Memorial Day Weekend, my area of town hosts the longest running street fair in Southern Colorado. Territory Days is a popular spot to be around here if your not out on the lake somewhere. My place looks so blah with no color in the flower pots so I always try and give them two weeks before the festival starts to grow up a little.


This is what a $60.00 box of flowers looks like. I kinda feel like I get ripped off when I buy flowers because 60 sounds like a lot but I guess it did take a business a little bit of work to get them to this point. Spring has Sprung in Colorado!
