Lantana is another of my favorite flowers in the garden.The flowers may be yellow, orange, white, red and purple, and often colors are mixed within the same cluster, creating a bicolored effect. I have pink, red, orange and yellow.
The butterflies flock to these blooms as do the hummingbirds. The yellow ones are like a ray of sunshine. Wishing you all a wonderful day filled with both happiness and sunshine.
Little things can make our day. Others may not have someone to make their day. Did you realize a small gesture may be the only kind thing the next person receives?

Lovely flowers!
Having worked in a service line, its always nice to receive smiles from customers. Sometimes, that is really the only smile we received after many hours of smiling (or fake smiles)…
Thanks so much! I knew you would understand about the smiles.
Beautiful bright flowers, thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much for your kindness.
Yesterday I saw the most beautiful butterfly while out on the walk. I was talking on the phone and wasn’t fast enough to catch the picture. For a second I stood there and though Carol would have gotten the picture.
🙂
How kind of you Doc. It does require a lot of patience for sure.
I think the small things are as good as the bigger ones to keep you happy from time time. I love this color as symbol of enlightenment!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. You made my day.
lovely flower indeed , thank you for sharing
Thanks so much for your kindness.
Yes the sunshine does make me happy
Yes I agree and I am sitting in the sunshine now.
That colour is stunning I had a huge collection of Lantana in my garden years ago and in fact I was planning on making a rainbow garden with these flowers. They practically have all colours of the rainbow.
Thanks and I too have many colors and love them all. Great flowers for butterflies.
As I have commented elsewhere some flowers refuse to deliver in my present garden probably because of trees around.
Beautiful flowers. If we are ready for small things, our life will be much nicer.
Thank you very much! I love these. I agree about the small things.
Such lovely and sunny flowers.
Thank you, and good to see you. 🙂
Have a great evening my friend!
We who are modest are delighting little things, dear Carol … flowers are wonderful
Yes indeed my friend. Thank you!
Have a great evening my friend!
Good morning and have a nice day, my dear friend
Thanks I am having a great day.
Lovely to have flowers to brighten the day! Very beautiful Carol!
Thank you Pam, I have to agree. 🙂
Have a great evening Pam!
My wife loves the flowers of yellow color,
Lantana would surely like her.
Thanks Carol.
That is great, it brightens my day like sunshine. Thank you.
Have a great evening my friend!
I just love your lantana. Your garden seems to be full of different blooms and plants… I often smile at strangers: some smile back but a lot of them do not because a lot of them have their eyes glued to their cellphone. Whatever happened to good natured people….
So kind my friend. I keep forgetting to post a garden photo, as LindaOH requested awhile
back. Things have changed so much in the world today.
Have a great evening my friend!
… Also, it is very good to see you visiting.
Yes I know I have not posted lately. That is because I was translating another book. This one was on genetics and CRISPR. I had a heck of a time with finding the right French terminology. I just finished and posted the translation on Monday. So now I am taking a few days off. But I should start posting again next week… Thank you for being such a good friend…
Sounds great. You are such an inspirational friend.
Your Lantana is beautiful as well. As you said, like a ray of sunshine. It’s true, I smile at strangers; and sometimes I think they really appreciate it.
Thanks, the yellow brightens the day like sunshine. Small things go a long way in life.
Have a great evening my friend!
