Now that we've made it to the 'May flowers' portion of the year, it's time to give our blooms the attention they deserve. Gardening is not nearly as fun when the April showers are threatening a dreaded warm-weather cold, so you can't be blamed for putting it off until now. But it should be majority sunny days from here on out, so we're pivoting our attention to greenery and florals for the foreseeable future.
Here's the thing, however: we don't all have a garden to tend to. No, many of us are city dwellers, meaning the only 'greenhouse' we can access is one we can fit on our windowsill. As a result, the only 'May flowers' we're enjoying are those we can buy at the grocery store or bodega. Sure, we can dream about blooming gardens, but until we drop the apartment living and acquiesce to the suburbs, a vase of blooms is as close as we're getting to a plant nursery of our own.
