May/June is always an interesting issue. Either our teeth are still chattering and we're searching for glimpses of green, or spring is breathing down our necks. This year, both of these situations are true, depending on location. That's a little unusual, but c'est la vie. The new normal.
The cover was chosen to honor an article in the magazine, and depicts my front garden. It will look this way by the end of June, I'm sure. At the rate things are going here, it could be by the end of May!
