Flowers on Sunday

“If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is a garden.”– Frances Hodgson Burnett

We have such busy lives, rushing from one task to another, barely taking a breath. Today, take that breath and enjoy a little flower therapy courtesy of the Biltmore Conservatory. The Conservatory is located at the far end of the formal gardens from the Biltmore House. It’s a special place where you can enter and literally smell the rich scents of growing things. I love to visit especially in the winter and early spring when my own gardens are not producing blooms.

I hope you’ll join me, today, with a hot beverage in hand and enjoy these images. Take a breath, relax and enjoy.

“There are always flowers for those who want to see them.”– Henri Matisse

“The very best relationship has a gardener and a flower. The gardener nurtures and the flower blooms.”– Carole Radziwill

“A flower’s appeal is in its contradictions — so delicate in form yet strong in fragrance, so small in size yet big in beauty, so short in life yet long on effect.”– Terri Guillemets

“You’re only here for a short visit. Don’t hurry, don’t worry. And be sure to smell the flowers along the way.”– Walter Hagen

“Flowers don’t worry about how they’re going to bloom. They just open up and turn toward the light and that makes them beautiful.”– Jim Carrey

“If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly our whole life would change.”– Buddha

The tulips were in bloom and made a wonderful display. Hope you enjoyed the flower therapy.

Have a great week.
