The Greening of Georgetown

BY SUSAN BODIKER

If you look carefully, you can see just the faintest green mist in the trees. Daffodils are sprouting through the dirt and the birds are warming up their courtship songs. The calendar — and temperature — may say otherwise, but it might as well be spring.

Inspired, we recently took a walk on Georgetown’s main streets and luxuriated in the colors of the season.

Photos by Susan Bodiker.

Lime scooters parked, appropriately, in front of Sweetgreen. Decorative myrtle topiary and hyacinth at Moss & Co.

Stairway to heaven, Carine’s Bridal. A new line of botanical skin care at the Phoenix.

Sheep may safely graze. Garden statuary at A Mano. For fresh-faced beauty, jade and quartz facial massage tools at Take Care.

Blooms, glorious blooms, at Trader Joe’s.
