Strawberry Blossoms are not all identical, but they are similar. Most are 5-8 petaled and white… but hybrid Strawberry Blossoms may be pink or other colors, too. The main business of the [...]
Today is my 33rd Birthday…

I’ve spent the past 3 days in Washington D.C. walking around the National Mall, Arlington, Georgetown and inside various museums. I have personally had a blast!

Achillea is the Yarrow’s botanical name, coming from one legend that when Greek hero Achilles was born, his mother held him by his heel and dipped him in Yarrow-infused water to protect him from harm. The Yarrow was believed to be a sacred [...]
