whenever I feel down I pop into the garden and am always cheered by the wonder of nature. Happy Friday, 🤗

Beautiful flower! 😍🌸

[JessicaRed]

i wholeheartedly agree

[MyHF]

I love this flower!! What is it? I’m young to be fair but flowers make me so happy!! Trees even more though as they keep me warm in winter. Winter is my favourite season but my favourite flower is the tulip…which marks the beginning of my least favourite season!😂

[MyHF]

Not as close up and different seasons but colours amaze me!

Favourite flower

[Heyjude31 in reply to MyHF]

Hi, I love the varied colour of your tulips, so vibrant! The flower is one of the variety of Dahlias. It is called a collerette dahlia and its name is ‘Fashion Monger’. They have some quirky names, I am a bit of a Dahlia fanatic. It was lovely to receive your post, thank you 🤗

We don't get much rain, I love daisies, they make me happy. I have a small community of birds that are there to greet me daily. Hope you like them. Take care. Moni

Wow your very own flower meadow, I am sure I would want to walk amongst all of the lovely flowers! It’s really beautiful

We have a robin that comes to see us every day, naturally I have called it Robbie!

Enjoy your beautiful flowers and thank you for sending me your picture it is very kind 🤗

Absolutely beautiful flower! It is probably more lovely in person.

[Smitty1956]

I don’t have a garden per se—just a few pots of rose moss and daisies.

Thank you 🙏

What a lovely dahlia. I discovered these last year, having thought they were boring (and earwig traps!). Planted some tubers then learned I needed OHS. Did wonder if I’d be here to see them bloom, but they’ve ignored all the drama and just starting to get going

Beautiful! I do hope you are okay too! 🤗

[Petitlady in reply to Heyjude31]

Not quite blooming, but getting there thank you!

My garden is my salvation, too since I lost my husband recently. It’s what keeps me going. I don’t know what I would have done over the past months without it.

[Heyjude31 in reply to Rosie1066]

My garden is definitely my salvation. I read a saying the other day.,……’.off to the garden I go, to lose my mind and find my soul’ it is definitely food for the soul for me 🤗I do hope you are okay .

[Rosie1066 in reply to Heyjude31]

Hi, yes I’m OK, thank you for asking. Gets to me occasionally but then I go out in the garden and then I think to myself how beautiful nature is and and how lucky I am to have a garden.

How wonderful nature is to lift your mood

I love roses and have quite a few in the garden, inherited from my dad. This is one of my favourites, unfortunately I don’t know the name of it.

Rose.

[Heyjude31 in reply to Rachmaninov2]

It’s so lovely when our flowers in our garden remind us of our loved ones. It makes them even more special, beautiful and precious ❤️

[Rachmaninov2 in reply to Heyjude31]

Yes, you are right it helps to keep them close and is a great comfort.
