Summer flowers!

Now I know why short is sweet! I have to take in as much floral bliss as possible so I can recollect it in cold wintery days and feel happy!

Flowers are a message from earth saying, ‘Everything is fine’! It is written in bold colors on delicate petals. I cannot stop wondering at the expression of nature boasting in such beautiful displays!

This Day lily lasts only a day but it is so dramatic! I love the artistic patters and satiny texture of those petals. I haves these Shasta daisies that cheer me year after year.

This hibiscus is not just a pretty face but very useful too. I have an abundance of pink blossoms that I use in many other ways like making teas, a herbal shampoo and oil. This is the flower that invites humming birds into my yard.

These are some wild flowers. A local conservation project was urging everyone to grow wild flowers to attract insects and butterflies. They gave me a seed heart, a clay cake in the shape of a heart with seeds embedded in it. I planted it in the soil to get these amazing blooms.

This perfect sunflower adorns my front yard.

Every year, I add new flowering plants to my already bursting at the seams garden.
