"And I think to myself what a wonderful world." Oh the anticipation of beauty to be enjoyed. Gardens bring us so much joy.
ReplyDeleteThat is so true, Peter! Most of the photos in this post are so out of date, but I've been collecting "promise" memories for several weeks now. For some reason, I'm noticing them even more this year--though, I've always appreciated those moments just before the "big events" of nature. :)
DeleteNothing beats watching and waiting as plants go through their stages. Lovely images.
ReplyDeleteAgreed--it's exciting, isn't it? Thank you, Linda.
DeleteI like this stage before the POP!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos . . .
Thanks, Lynne. Me, too! It's magical. :)
DeleteSometimes buds are even more exciting than the blooms!
ReplyDeleteI agree! Almost always...or at least as exciting! :)
DeleteWonderful photos Beth. Such pretties to look forward to .
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lisa. These photos are all out of date, but I've been collecting "promise" moments for several weeks now. I love the anticipation...
DeleteI complete understand gardening in a cooler zone.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on
I think you may have found me from the WW link? Isn't that a fun meme? Yes, gardening in a cooler zone is challenging for some of the months. Not so much during the summer, though. :)
DeleteI love this!! I was trying to pick a favorite, but I can not, I like them all.

Thank you, Carla. I love the promise of new buds and blooms and the anticipation of things about to happen. :)
DeleteGreat macro shots.
ReplyDeleteThanks--the subjects are fascinating and photogenic. :)
DeleteAnticipation of joys to come is a delight.
ReplyDeleteAgreed! And I'm a little late with replies, so these things have now "happened." Time to seek out some new items of "promise." ;-)
DeleteThese photos are all so lovely Beth. The first one reminds me of the tomato flowers which i haven't seen again for quite sometime.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yes, I guess the yellow of the Rudbeckia is similar to the yellow of Tomato flowers. I really enjoy Tomato flowers, too!
DeleteGreat photos Beth, it is such fun to enjoy all stages of our flowers, love this.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I agree: Every stage is special. :)
DeleteTerrific shots here! I especially like the Rudbeckia and Verbena. Thanks for brightening my day :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Hollis! The yellow-orange and purple-blue are pretty together, aren't they? You are welcome--I'm a little late in my response with crazy happenings around here lately. Still plenty of time to enjoy the flowers. ;-)
DeleteBeautiful shots!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!!

Thank you, Lisa. Flower gardens are such good therapy!
DeleteGreat closeups. Yes, I spend a lot of time looking at buds that seem just about to burst.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jason. Seems most gardeners appreciate the magic of those "just about to bloom" moments.
