Last week there were but a few
purple buds peeking, teasing.

This week...out in all their glory.

When words escape,
flowers speak.
- Bruce W. Currie


In my garden there is a large place for sentiment.
My garden of flowers is also
my garden of thoughts and dreams.
The thoughts grow as freely as the flowers,
and the dreams are as beautiful.
- Abram L. Urban


When you leave my garden don't forget
to pass by Kelli's House.

    Thanks for sharing these photos. Oh, I love the picture of the little girl knocking on the door. It looks better matted in the green.
