Announcing the winners of the 🌺 SteemIt Community Garden Journal Challenge - February Edition. Check out these garden journals!
The Challenge
Once again... I'm late posting the winner's announcement. I'm sorry for that.
If this was the first time you joined the 🌺 SteemIt Community Garden Journal Challenge, you should know that i never seem to be able to get the winner's post out one time. Life has its ways that cause me to be late all the time.
But here it is, at last!
8 people joined this 9th edition of the SteemIt Community Garden Journal Challenge, which was a little less than I had expected. I asume it was just a tiny bit too early or to late in the season for most gardeners.
You can find all entries in the comments section of the official contest post: 🌺 SteemIt Community Garden Journal Challenge 9 - January (Join Or Resteem And Win).
As always, I loved reading all those garden journals and seeing all those pictures. They made me long for spring once again. Fortunately, spring isn't that far away anymore.

The Contestants
Next to some veterans, I also had the pleasure to welcome a couple of new faces, and their gardens.
A big thanks to everyone who participated this time and showed us their January update.
I really enjoyed reading everyone’s posts. Again, the entries were of different varieties: we could see summer gardens, winter gardens, indoor gardens... I could simply feel the enthusiasm and the love for greenery. Once again, I fell in love with everyone’s story...
I'm sorry I failed to leave you all a decent comment, but life has been hectic. I assure you I did read every single post and enjoyed it to the fullest.
If you love your garden - no matter how big or how small it is - I probably won’t have to tell you that you are all winners.
If you’re a bit like me you know how easy instant happiness can be: a flower that blooms, a delicious, homegrown fruit to pick, finding a ladybug walking around... They don’t come any better than that, right?!
The Winners
Again, it was difficult to decide who I would reward with the SBD prizes. If I could have it my way, you would all win first prize, but if I start doing that every month, I'll be broke before I know it...
But here they are, the winners of the February-edition of the 🌺 SteemIt Community Garden Journal Challenge.
The winners are...
