Growing

A week of glorious sunshine has delivered lots of new growth and flowering in my garden. It’s especially exciting to see the plum blossom, but I think the bees are happiest amongst the borage flowers. You’ll have to take my word for that now — I was up too early to catch any in action.

This week’s Lens-Artists Challenge | Pick a Word offered Growing (amongst others). I thought I was done yesterday with Comfortable — but how could I resist flower photos.

And it’s Friday.

  2. Su, the first image with the rosemary flowers – has this energy with the items pointing right – with a little wave – had me looking there for a while –
    and taking your word for it that those bees were enjoying the many blooms — ahhhh :0)

  4. I used to grow borage in my garden – lovely plant! Someone once told me it was known as the happiness herb so I used to go out and chew on some borage every once in a while. Don’t know if the borage made me any happier but being in the garden sure did.
    Wonderful photos, Su!

  6. Gloriously serene and dewy, Su! So glad you could not resist this – flowers must not be neglected. Spring is with you now – growing is essential. Thank you for sharing, much appreciated as we are heading into Autumn here and most flowers are over.

  7. The calendula bud in the dew is excellent. Borage on the other hand although great for bees and the odd G&T is a thug in my garden and I have to pull out thousands of seedlings each year. Pretty flowers, and a white one is a nice change.
