The Final Walk in the Gardens in late June 2023

 The Final June Walk in the gardens - - June 2023

 

Here are more blooms happening in these final days of June.  Earlier on June 9^th. ( If you want to check out that posting )  I posted photos of the earlier days this year in June.  The following photos and those of the earlier posting will give an idea of all the wonderful plants that are so “alive” at this time of the year here on the shores of Lake Michigan in the Gardens at Waters East.  There are more but enough is enough - - for now.

A Walk in the Gardens in Early June

A quick walk through the gardens in early June.  Checking on some of the plants blooming this week in the Gardens at Waters East. Many more plants “alive” with flowers – so nice to see. Summer is now happening.

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.  

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 a couple of lily photos for this posting

pause a moment - - - really slow down and pause a moment

see the details
