Shades of Green

I know we’re all getting tired of this year’s rainy and cloudy spring. I just heard someone refer to it as “Maytober”. There is one positive aspect of this, however. All the cloudy and overcast days are great backdrops to showcase our gardens and all the different colors of green as the new foliage emerges. Pantone must have had this in mind when they selected this year’s color of the year – “Greenery”. As I was putting my daughter to bed a couple nights ago, I looked out into the garden and enjoyed all the different shades of green – made all the more vivid by another cloudy Seattle day.
