"May and June. Soft syllables, gentle names for the two best months in the garden year: cool, misty mornings gently burned away with a warming spring sun, followed by breezy afternoons and chilly nights. The discussion of philosophy is over; it's time for work to begin." - Peter Loewer 
May also bring the unforgettable fragrance of lilacs,
and the combination of bleeding hearts and late blooming tulips,
and geraniums ready to breathe the outside air.
