G is for Geranium

Thank you geranium for rewarding us with bloom after bloom all summer long. When all other posies are croaking from the harsh Dakota heat and wind you survive. Forget to water you and you're still blooming. Over water and you still look pretty.


   Then when all others are either pulled up or just left to wither away, we bring you in the house for the winter and forget you. Sitting out there on the drafty porch against a frosty window you patiently wait for spring when you'll be once again set outdoors to flower in the sun.
   Now tell me...what could be friendlier than a geranium?    b
