Hydrangeas for arrangement!

 The focus is Hydrangeas. Most French  Hydrangeas will change colors with the addition of garden lime or soil acidifiers...Garden lime turns them pink or red and Soil acidifier turns

them blue and a mix of the two can turn them purple!

 Oak Leaf  Hydrangeas!

 40 feet of  Hydrangeas!

 

 

 When cutting  Hydrangeas you want to dip the stems in Alum as soon as possible to prevent flop!

Every morning is a good morning

Progress so far...

Not Right Now...

Every morning I take a cup of coffee and walk around my garden in my bathrobe and slippers.

 I close my eyes and inhale the scents of Jasmin, Gardenia or Rosemary whatever blooms that are scenting the air and I center myself. The world is full of stresses and pain. Assaults on our minds and bodies. People wanting or needing, striving and sometimes hurting others. I walk around my garden and listen to the wind blow, the birds chirp and get that small amount of peace. God tells me everything in the world is going on, going to happen...but just not right now! My gift is all this and more...you have just to reach for it. Take a breath, look at the colors listen to the real heart beat of the world. Stress and everything you have to do...just not right now.
