My tulips are so close to blooming. Any day now and there will be color in the garden. I have several colors and I hope they all bloom soon. I love the tulips as they come back every year. You plant the bulbs and then wait for the color to appear.
I plan to add more to the garden as soon as I can. Maybe not this year.
Flowers are those little colorful beacons of the sun from which we get sunshine when dark, somber skies blanket our thoughts. ~Dodinsky

Once they bloom around us beautifully, it will also bloom in our hearts.
What a nice thought, you are absolutely correct.. as always!
Of course it nice for it came from all that bloom in my heart… lol
You have a very big heart my friend.
Indeed, thank you and have a great day.
Favorite flower to have around me Lillies!
Favorite flower to give Roses and Tulips.

Great choices there, I love all of the above including the quote.
Just doing what you asked in your post 🙂
The quote is one I’ve used with every single project I’ve ever started!
I love irises. There is something mysterious about them. I can’t remember any of my favorite quotes right now.
Good to see you. Irises are beautiful.
There is a saying that goes “Success is not forever. Failure is not fatal.” I believe the slogan came from former Baltimore Colts and Miami Dolphins football coach Don Shula.
I have not heard that one before but am familiar with Don Shula.
I heard that comment in an interview that was recorded on a self help tape from Nightengale -Conant tapes.
I guess I don’t remember most quotes I read … and I don’t really have a favourite flower …
perhaps I just like pretty flowers … lol or that I prefers the fruits more … hehe
Maybe you should keep reading, I have many quotes that stay with me. But that’s just me.
I tend to remember funny quotes more …
and I tend to have a “replacement system” so instead of adding new quotes, I tend to “overwrite” them … :/
Can’t help it when you’ve limited space :p
Sounds like a good system.
I can understand the excitement when your favorite plant is about to bloom.
Yes it is very exciting, thanks.
I am waiting to see the tulips exhibition again in May.
That will be a beautiful exhibition for sure.
It will surely be wonderful. You will see her in pictures
I’m not sure if we can grow tulips in our place. This is such a beautiful flower. It’s glad to know that you have it in your garden.
Thank you, I have them every year. Have a good weekend!
That we are capable only of being what we are remains our unforgivable sin
-Gene Wolfe
Have never read that before, a deep meaning.
first read it in high school, but it has stuck with me ever since
Funny how some things stay with us for a lifetime.
Indeed. I love books that grow with you…
You are about 14 days before me, dear Carol …. Narcissus is now blooming with me – tulips are still very small and closed
We are almost on the same schedule. Have a good weekend!
Thank you the same dear Carol
