FLOWER QUOTE: WHAT I LOVE MOST
July 02, 2018
MY TWO CENTS Fireworks are flowers in the garden sky… What a lovely quote and true visual. Here is one example of this Pink Powderpuff bloom that looks as if it’s fireworks exploding here on earth. So many flowers have that explosive beauty, and more can be seen on my blooming blog. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Jarod Kintz (b. March 5, 1982) was born in Salt Lake City, Utah. As a young child he moved...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: WHAT I LOVE MOST
June 25, 2018
MY TWO CENTS What I love most about this crazy life is the adventure of it… I love adventure and at the same time, I know I don’t have enough of it in my life. Sometimes it’s lack of time, other times it’s lack of effort. And then there is the ease of living vicariously through the lens of others through social media, and let’s face it - that is not true adventure. Adventure doesn’...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: GARDENS SAY SLOW DOWN
June 18, 2018
MY TWO CENTS Gardens say, Slow down, Look around you, Believe, Hope... I'm doing my best to let my gardens speak to me, and I'm trying to slow down. Admittedly though, I do find it hard at times, but when I spend time in my gardens I find I slow down and don’t feel so rushed. The gardens make me look around and take in all of the breathtaking beauty they give all summer long. The second part...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: LIFE IS NOT MEASURED
June 11, 2018
MY TWO CENTS Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away… As I mentioned in my blooming blog, where does the time go? It goes too fast, but this quote reminds me that as quick as it goes, I have a choice. I can choose between life moving too fast or slowing down to notice the amazing world and people around me. And then I will find those m...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: I MUST HAVE FLOWERS
June 04, 2018
MY TWO CENTS I must have flowers, always, and always… I too, must always have flowers in my life, whether it be fresh flowers, flowers in my garden or cutting garden, forced bulbs during the winter or potted plants by my kitchen window. I also love sharing flowers through my photography, to create a moment of beauty for your view and desktop. To have flowers always is possible; to do so, it mea...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: WHAT IS A WEED?
May 28, 2018
MY TWO CENTS What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered… What is your definition of a weed? By calling something a weed, I’m not meaning it disparagingly. For me, it means that I don’t want that particular bloom in my garden. Every flower has a purpose, and that doesn’t mean a weed still isn’t beautiful and creates a sense of awe. Read more on my blooming blog an...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: TO FORGET HOW TO DIG
May 21, 2018
MY TWO CENTS To forget how to dig the earth and to tend the soil is to forget ourselves… In my twenties, I lived in an apartment with a small patio where I planted my container gardens every summer. Looking back, though, I don’t think I was as aware of my love of “tending” the soil. Now I can’t wait to get my hands into the earth and plant, whether it be a small pot that sits on my win...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: LIKE A WILD FLOWER
May 14, 2018
MY TWO CENTS Like a wild flower; she spent her days allowing herself to grow, not many know of her struggle, but eventually all; knew of her light… What I love most about this quote is the reference of how “she” (each of us) has our own internal struggle, though no one really knows of it except ourselves. It doesn’t stop there though, as what’s most glorious of all is how she (each of u...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: ALL THE FLOWERS
May 07, 2018
MY TWO CENTS All the flowers of all the tomorrows are in the seeds of today… It's like my cutting garden; if I plan and plant I will reap the benefits. If I don't plan and plant, I will not reap the beauty of the flowers I dream of seeing. To see growth, you must start small by planting seeds of how you want to grow in your life. It starts small, and it needs nurturing, love, care, sunshine and...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: HAPPINESS HELD IS THE SEED
April 30, 2018
MY TWO CENTS Happiness held is the seed; Happiness shared is the flower… It’s exciting to hold a seed and think of the amazing metamorphosis it will undergo; imagining what that seed’s life will be from planting to germination to bud to the flower being in bloom. Once in bloom, I get excited about sharing that flower through my photography, and then cutting the flowers into lovely bouquets ...
