Tiger lilies are what my Grandma Baker grew by the porch. They remind me of her and therefore are my favorite flower. I can't express how happy and emotional I was this morning when I saw it had finally opened and saw that it was indeed a tiger lily. I planted a bunch of them in the fall and didn't know if they had survived the winter and the late spring snow storms.
Misty Lou, Misty Jean, Mistycal and even Extrafancy are just a few of the nicknames to which I answer. The most important names though are Wife, StepMom and Mom. With all these names it's sometimes hard to know who I am! This blog started as a Nebraska girl learning, trying, succeeding and failing at gardening in Colorado. Along the way in growing my garden, I grew my family too as I married a wonderful man and became StepMom to two precious Boys. Now our family grows more as we have a Baby Girl. So here is all of me as I share my family, home and garden. BTW my middle name is Jennifer; my name is Misty Jennifer Montano.
