I didn’t know much about flower gardening before discovering Midwest Garden Gal. Lisa has helped me realize that my thumb is greener than I thought! Her extensive knowledge of which plants do well in specific locations and conditions is a big help. Couple that with her wonderfully fun and informative way of communicating and you’ve got a great garden coach on your side. — Todd
