"If you pass by the color purple in a field and don't notice it, God gets real pissed off."

Today (this post was written when it was VERY late on Sunday, so today really means Sunday) I was sooooo sick of sitting inside NOT cleaning, NOT organizing, NOT putting laundry away so I decided to walked around my yard and take some pictures of my favorite flowers. The lighting was excellent and my flowers are really looking GREAT *jumps up quickly and knocks on wood*! So..enjoy =)

~Our very first Hydrangea bush!! And it is thriving! Go figure!~

~A gorgeous perfect bloom~

~A close up of natures beauty~

~BIG DADDY got this at a greenhouse. It was too neat to pass up! It is a Black Eyed Susan Vine and it's growing like a weed...~

~Here is a bloom getting ready to pop. It is really quite different because they first make little pods and the very tip of them has a teeeny tiny opening and the flower works it's way out to bloom =)~

~Close up of one of the blooms~

~My most favorite EVER!! My lush soft Coreopsis, ohh how I love thee~

~Pretty Pink Pin Cushion. I ♥ this too~

~BIG DADDY'S Astilbe. He loves these. They are always catching his eye.~

~Our urn filled with Reed Grass, 2 Sweet Potato Plants and Twinspur. This is sitting in the corner of our front brick sitting area/patio thingy.~

~Close up of Twinspur, it is a Flirtation Orange variety..~

~Stella D'oro Daylilly~

~My Shasta Daisies! These are another one of my favorites, because they are so simple and plain. They remind me of days gone by~ Loooook at all those soon to be blooms!♥

~Geraniums are another of those feel good simple, "old school" plants. This one is of the salmon variety~

~My favorite mix of plants this season. I think I will do this to more than 1 pot next year. It just makes me smile when I look at it.~

~My Dianthus is doing VERY well this year...in past years I have been blessed by their beauty for only about 2 weeks. But they are pluggin away this year!~

~Another variety of daisy, but this one is not a perennial =( Which sucks. It is just sooo very pretty~

When I read this it gave me goosebumps...

Have you ever seen a flower down
Sometimes angels skip around
And in their blissful state of glee
Bump into a daisy or sweet pea.
~Jessi Lane Adams

And when I read it again, tears welled up in my eyes. I love it. I think it may find a home in my garden oh so very soon.
