Friendly Neighborhood Nessralla’s

It’s that time of year, the time to think of FLOWERS.

I know it’s twice as expensive as Lowe’s, but I have to do it.  I have to get the bulk of my impulsive yearly flower and herbs from the neighborhood nursery, in my case, Nessralla’s Farm.  It’s not fancy, and I can’t buy every last thing I ever wanted, but I’ll always remember my first forays into the greenhouses in late spring with the kids, new enough to the South Shore to never run in to someone I know—the owner gave each of the boys free gardenias 2 years in a row.  Yes, I can be bribed.

What a wonderful gig, to grow things and dole them out.
