The Garden Break

“What a desolate place would be a world without a flower!  It would be a face without a smile, a feast without a welcome.  Are not flowers the stars of the earth, and are not our starts the flowers of the heaven.”  ~A.J. Balfour    

 

 

The garden is still slumbering, getting ready to spring forth in flowers soon.  And as my garden waits, still on a break, I am taking a break too this week.  This is the first break I have taken in almost 6 years, but it feels right.

I will back next week with a new blog post, and will catch up with everyone then.  I hope you enjoy these Crocus tommasinianus.  They sing spring to me as we wait for the earth to thaw.  I can’t wait to see them popping up through the grass soon.

 

And I hope you will join me for Seasonal Celebrations.  Details are below.

Join In The Seasonal Celebration:

As I feel spring’s call, to celebrate this new season coming soon, I hope you will join me. I welcome those Down Under who will be celebrating the coming of fall to join in too.  

All you have to do is write a post between now and March 2oth telling me how you are or will be celebrating the new season.  Then leave a comment on the kick-off post, with your link, so it can be included in my summary post on March 21st.  

I do hope you will consider joining in the Seasonal Celebrations meme as we celebrate the new season arriving soon to your corner of the world.

 
 
And as always, I will be collaborating with Beth@Plant Postings and her Lessons Learned meme at this same time.  What lessons have you learned this past season of winter here in the Northern Hemisphere and summer in the Southern Hemisphere.  Write a separate post or combine your Lessons with your Celebrations for one post.

Next On The Blog:

Next week, I will have a few Moments In The Garden.  What has winter been providing?  Some very interesting and quick changes so far….and a messy time in my garden.
