Garden Bloggers’ Bloom Day: February, 2013

The sun is climbing higher and higher every day. It seems that the spring will be here just in few days. The spring usually comes to Lithuania from the South West, together with a soft and wet sea wind. The smell of the sea is a herald of the spring.  Sometimes I can almost smell…
