It's not all about the rose

2/3/2017

February & roses go hand in hand for Valentine's Day, however the rose is not the flower for this month - it's the Violet and Primrose.

The Primrose lets someone know you can't live without them. They are not related to the rose. These plants are colorful perennials that are among the 1st to bloom in early Spring. They're easy to grow and low maintenance. They like a little shade with moist soil. Dried primrose can be used to make teas & the young leaves are edible.

The violet is the state flower of New Jersey (as well as Rhode Island & Illinois). There are about 400-500 species of violets and have been around since ancient Greece. The plant is edible and contains high amounts of Vitamin C & antioxidants. Violets like a little shade with moist soil. The violet signifies watchfulness, loyalty & faithfulness.

It's not all about the roses and flowers (though they're great!). It would be a waste of time to go into the rose garden of life without profusely thanking those who are keeping up with their end of the bargain.

Greenwood garden has a wonderful historic oasis with manicured lawn. The visitors are very fond of how the volunteers help the visitors. Of course, you need to go for an admission fee before you visit. Keep in mind the garden is open from May-November, so book the tickets accordingly. But it is worth it always.
