I really love flowers. In fact, I have a small garden in my back yard. I love staying there and by looking at my garden, I always feel calm and relaxed. If I have time or if I’m not busy, I always plant a new one. But, I am really getting sad every time winter comes. The flowers in my garden are dying. But my friend told me that I can do something to prevent them from dying. She told me to use the power of the internet. Now, I am researching for ways on how to survive a plant during winter. Thankfully, I found your blog. This is really a big help. I will surely do your tips. And thank you for the tips!
