What would the world be,

without our gardeners,

who tend the flowers,

where flutters fly by,

and make friends with humans?

Gardeners,

are like the flowers,

they tend,

they make the world beautiful.

Cheers to you, and all the world’s gardeners, from The Flower Fields in Carlsbad California~

Just Wow!
Ahhh…Thank you! დ
Your photos of the flower fields are spectacular. I am so ready for spring. I saw something green and purple poking through the soil today. Winter will soon be over, even in Ohio. 🙂
Yay! Spring is springing and the sun will soon be shining. Thanks much & cheers to you დ
Beautiful photos, Cindy! The girl is so lucky to have the butterfly land on her!
The butterfly quite liked her and stayed there for quite some time! დ
Dear Cindy as well as All and Sundry,
What a riot of colours and textures you have shown us in these floral beauties! In return, I would like to share with you the following:
Horticultural Tips for Springtime and mid-March Resolution
How To Plant Your Garden
First, you come to the garden alone,
while the dew is still on the roses….
FOR THE GARDEN OF YOUR DAILY LIVING,
PLANT THREE ROWS OF PEAS:
1. Peace of mind.
2. Peace of heart.
3. Peace of soul.
PLANT FOUR ROWS OF SQUASH:
1. Squash gossip.
2. Squash indifference.
3. Squash grumbling.
4. Squash selfishness.
PLANT FOUR ROWS OF LETTUCE:
1. Lettuce be faithful.
2. Lettuce be kind.
3. Lettuce be patient.
4. Lettuce really love one another.
NO GARDEN IS WITHOUT TURNIPS:
1. Turnip for meetings.
2. Turnip for service.
3. Turnip to help one another.
TO CONCLUDE OUR GARDEN WE MUST HAVE THYME:
1. Thyme for each other.
2. Thyme for family.
3. Thyme for friends.
WATER FREELY WITH PATIENCE AND CULTIVATE WITH LOVE.
THERE IS MUCH FRUIT IN YOUR GARDEN BECAUSE YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW.
Yours sincerely,
SoundEagle🦅ೋღஜஇ

Stunning ranunculus fields, absolutely gorgeous! Wish I was there. 🙂
I wish you were here! They go on through April. We could get frozen custards!

Exquisite photos, Cindy. (I especially love the one with the woman being kissed on her forehead by a butterfly.) 💜🤗
Isn’t she wonderous! She and the butterfly sat so patiently together for quite a long time. Cheers to you Carol დ
💜🪶
Beautiful
Grazie დ
What a beautiful tribute to the joy of gardening! The vibrant ranunculus in shades of yellow and orange must look absolutely radiant among the fresh green leaves. Gardens like those at the The Flower Fields at Carlsbad Ranch are a wonderful reminder of how nature rewards patience, care, and love.
Cheers indeed to gardeners everywhere who nurture such beauty and share it with the world. 🌼🌿

You are most welcome Lynette. I am happy you enjoyed my friend & cheers to you დ
Spectacular, Cindy! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🌸
Merci beaucoup mon Ami Jane დ
Three wows from our cold region in BC! The most I can show these chilly March days are the delicate snowdrops. What explosion of colour in your amazing photos, Cindy! You added a new meaning to the helpers of the flower fields.
So happy you enjoyed Peter & thank you very much. Your wonderful snowdrops have such delicate, hopeful beauty. Take good care my friend დ
Fabulous, Cindy! 🌸🌷🌼
Grazie mille Terri დ
Your name photos always give me such joy, Cindy! 💜
Ahhh…. You just gave joy back to me Teresa. Thank you დ
So much beauty!

One opens this and looks and a smile comes naturally and the body relaxes and is grateful also 🙂 !
Your beautiful comment just did the exact thing to me Eha! Thank you sincerely my friend & take good care დ
gorgeous… wonder if all these flowers will end up in vases or in the perfume industry… but the sight heals the heart….
We need the healing of our hearts. These flowers are mostly bred for the bulbs which are sold worldwide. When I was younger, you could bring scissors, ask, and fill your trunk with them as long as you didn’t pull up the bulbs. They are rununculas, which are one of my favorite flowers, but they are mostly scentless. I am happy you enjoyed them Rajani დ
Thanks for explaining, Cindy. So much to learn! Will check if these flowers grow in India!!!!
Yes. Thank you. Me too. Being a perpetual learner is a good way to live.
WoW! That’s amazing! What a beautiful garden! 🌸💕
So happy you enjoyed the blooming beauties my friend & thank you დ
Those flower fields are spectacular, Cindy! Many thanks for the shout-out to gardeners.
Love our gardens and gardeners! Cheers to you Audrey დ

What glorious photos Cindy! I’m a gardener and can’t wait to get back to it. The bulbs I planted last fall are coming up already.

Hi Leslie. Gardeners plant joy my friend. Yes, our bulbs are up now too as well as a bumper crop of wildflowers. Enjoy! Spring is springing დ
I would love one of those rehab shows to come make over the backyard at the new house. Not one flowerbed or a tree. I do have a rough idea of what my bird area will look like,
OOOOh….. That is so much opportunity. A blank slate in which to create. Enjoy! დ
Yes, how nice but we move forward with what we have.
Yes. We do.
