for the flower lovers

For those of us whose hearts sing when we see flowers, who love abundant blousy gardens, whose idea of bliss is an armful of garden gathered flowers. The joy of being surrounded by flowers, creating something beautiful, perhaps learning to look at your garden with fresh eyes is wonderful and life-long. As well as learning practical skills, being surrounded by flowers, being present in the moment, keeping our minds still and focused is so good for us on a deeper level.
