Re: I love flowers

[ Edited ]

Me too!   

 

This year I have petunias, profusion zinnias, moonflower, black eyed susan vine, coleus and cosmos. 

 

The moonflower and black eyed susan vine, I started from seed had some cold mornings and are doing as well as they could. Cosmos have yet to flower.  Everything in pots as I am in an apartment with a 6x12 deck. Downstairs by my door I have peony and southern wood.

Me too! In fact, at my local grocery store there was a dahlia like yours, godi, only pink instead of the purple Heart

@godi   I have loved flowers for most of my life and always had flower gardens wherever I lived.  I remember one year when I was very young and my father surprised me when he came home from work one day with two boxes of pansies, and we knelt together and planted them.

I love flowers too and saw the most perfectly shaped rose the other day.  A definite work of God.  It was pink to boot!  Just beautiful.

I am crazy for flowers!  When I am walking I am always amazed at the vast array of lovely and different flowers!

Flowers are one of the many things I love about summer. I spend time everyday watering or removing dead leaves and hopefully soon picking the dahlias. It's just a simple thing but gives me joy everyday.
