Daffodils are planted in the fall and bloom in early spring. The most popular daffodil color is yellow, but the can also be green, pink, yellow-and-orange, yellow-and-white and white-and-orange. They are great as a bouquet or growing in a sunny window.

When you see pansies, you know that spring is officially here. These cool-temperature bloomers are a spring staple and provide a long flowering season. The lovely flower comes in three color patterns and some have a pleasant scent. If your thumb isn’t all that green, consider pansies as they are easy to grow and require minimal care.

Peonies
Peonies are a fan favorite! The beautiful flowering plant blooms from spring to summer and, when planted in a garden, will come back every year. Peonies are known for their longevity and make excellent house plants thanks to their sweet scent.

Pussy Willows
Native to North America, the weeping pussy willow blooms in the spring. The male trees are distinct in that they produce catkins (small fuzzy flowers full of pollen) earlier than their female counterparts. Pussy willows make great indoor plants and can be moved outside when the frost is gone. Also known as the tree of enchantment, pussy willows are considered one of the most graceful trees. As legend has it, the pussy willow fulfills wishes with magical power, among other things.

Heinen's Grocery Store

By Heinen's Grocery Store

In 1929, Joe Heinen opened the doors of a small butcher shop on the east side of Cleveland, Ohio, aiming to establish himself as the city’s purveyor of quality meats. As customers came into Heinen’s new shop for their meat purchases, they began asking him to carry groceries as well. Joe added homemade peanut butter, pickles and donuts and by 1933, business had grown enough to include a line of produce and canned goods. Heinen’s Grocery Store was born.
