Melissa, from Empress of Spring also runs another blog Empress of Dirt. She's a gardener from Ontario, Canada and shares her garden as well as other great garden news, in a very creative way.

She's been noted around the gardening blogosphere for her original photo frames which complement each of the images she places on her blog. These frames, she explains, are just accentuated by using Photoshop.

The blurb Melissa uses to define her blog is;

I am secretly plotting a move to the country. Until then, I spend my days countryfying my suburban home, obsessively enjoying gardening all 120 frost-free days of the year.

Empress of Dirt is a great gardening blog and if you haven't checked it out yet then head on over and take her garden tour.
