My name is Anna. I teach kindergarten and 1st grade, and I bought my first home in June 2012. Since then, I have become very interested in gardening because I finally have my very own tiny outdoor space! It's been an ongoing project, especially with my two dogs! One of the perks to my career is having lots of time off. Spring breaks and summers off will give me a chance to gain more knowledge about my new hobby.

In Bloom in Warm November
It is now November, but here in Southern California the weather is still warm. Most days are still in the 80s, and a few days dipping into the low 70s for the high! For those who don't use Farenheit, it's still warm and even hot at times! My tiny garden is still in bloom, and many plants considered annuals in colder climates survive winters here, and are considered perennials. Everytime I read a gardening article in a magazine or online I always wonder what it really is like to deal with frost! I am grateful that I don't have to think about it! My little bitty garden continues to thrive and manages to stay colorful in our temperate climate here. The red salvia, marigolds (I love my french ones!), yarrow, dahlias, impatiens (obsessed with double flower and new guinnea!!!), geraniums, dianthus, begonias, mums, white and purple asylum, and a few others are all still workin' it, as pictured below!! Just took these pics this morning!!! So cheerful!
