Stop and smell the flowers in other people's gardens!

Disclaimer. None of these flowers are mine

Other people have planted them to bring a bit of joy into our world and I simply must stop to admire them as I go past.

foxglove/Digitalis

I have some beautiful flowers growing in pots on my deck, but what person who has a camera in their hand can resist taking flower photos when such beauties are prominently on display along the sidewalk!

peonies

iris

lilacs

I could smell these lilacs long before I saw where they were. They were blooming high above my head and I might have missed seeing them if not for that marvelous fragrance!

clematis

I love this time of year when nature puts on such a grand show! People are outdoors enjoying working in their yards after a long black and white winter, and all of these wonderful colors stop us in our tracks to appreciate all the loveliness!
