Here is a “Quickie” from this morning.
The Bougainville is in full bloom the last few weeks so I thought I would share a couple photos. As you know the flower is only the small white flower that you see.
The orange / salmon is not the flower but the bracts.
Enjoy
Checking out and remembering some of the past flowers I have enjoyed.
These photos are from my last trip to Switzerland. Impossible not to love the place;
the mountains, glaciers, houses, and of course the flowers.
Do enjoy!
In celebration of St. Patrick’s Day this week, Gardens at Waters East wants to share some GREEN today.
Here are some odds and ends of garden green.
Enjoy & Happy St. Patrick’s Day

In Your Face!!!
Me, me, me. Look at me. No, look at me. Better yet, skip all those and look at me! Walking through the Gardens at Waters East, one almost hears this constant refrain. Every plant wants attention. Every bloom is screaming – “I’m so beautiful just look at me!” In many cases they are right. Take a look at some of the beauties basking in the sun and calling to be the center of your attention. Checkout the detail of some of the garden residents.
All of these “portraits” were take here in the gardens. Self centered though they may be, the flowers do make you stop and stare. They seem to be doing “their thing” just for you. So why not indulge them for a few moments while walking the paths.
Here then are photos for this posting
pause a moment - - - really slow down and pause a moment

even if you only pick one or two of the photos - pause a moment
Enjoy
