I always feel this wave of relief when I see my garden plants coming back to life in the spring, especially when I'm worried they've all perished over the winter. It's such a joy to spot new growth! Anyone else experience this feeling?

Absolutely! It's such a nice surprise, especially when you find plants you've totally forgotten about. I love doing my garden strolls every day now to see what's sprouted up!
Every year, I freak out thinking all my plants are dead, only to be super relieved when I see new leaves. It’s like a daily ritual for me to check on them. Right now, I’m worried about my grape and wisteria, but I know they usually take their sweet time!
I totally feel you! I’m staring at my hydrangeas right now, and I’m anxious they might not make it. I got them at the end of the season, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed!

If you scrape the bark on a lower stem and see green underneath, they're still alive! Hydrangeas can be slow to leaf out, so don’t lose hope just yet!
