Spring has come...

Hello, these days outside is very cold...and the end of February, we had snow in Chiba. That is pretty rare in this area. On the other hand, I feel coming of spring in our small garden. These photos are the tulip bulbs, which my mom planted. We can see how the plants grow up, and how strong the nature power is.

Tasha Tudor - whom i wanted to meet

Do you know “Tasha Tudor (1915-2008)”?

She is one of America’s best-known and beloved illustrators, and also, very famous for her artistic garden in Vermont. To our surprise, her beautiful garden area is 20 times larger than Tokyo Dome.

I knew her through TV and heard from my mom. Tasha loved the nature, animals, hand-made lifestyle, and left many lovely messages. I’d like to grow up like her.

For your info.
