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~

Thank you, as ever, for an inspiring post. Yes, gardens are more necessary to humanity than ever, for beauty, consolation and sustainability, our own cultivated paradises on earth. (Pippa)
You are most welcome and I couldn’t agree with you more Pippa. Nature is a soothing balm to the heart and soul დ
What a lovely tribute to flowers, gardeners, and spring. Thanks Cindy. I love your butterfly image! 😍 Have you visited any of the areas in California having superblooms this year?
Hi Brad. Great to hear from you. I haven’t visited the superblooms this year, although I ususally do. It seems like The Holler may be superblooming soon. The wildflowers are profilic this year and are just starting to bloom. Hope all is well with you my friend დ
Thanks Cindy. I hope they come to the holler. I would love to see a superbloom in person.

Cindy, what a wonderful photography exhibition. Your images remind us how much beauty gardeners bring into the world. As Claude Monet once said, “My garden is my most beautiful masterpiece.”

Good to hear from you Jo. Thank you for stopping by დ
Cheers indeed. The young woman with the butterfly wasn’t quite happy, was she? 😉
Oh she was so happy! The butterfly stayed on her face forever. She didn’t move because she didn’t want it to fly away. She was struck by amazement and humor დ
How lovely. 😀

The world would be a sad place without all our gardeners! Enjoyed your words and photos!

Carlsbad, CA looks a world away from Carlsbad, NM! I was expecting the location to be Holland or something similar. How splendid, Cindy. What a lovely story you told. I could hear it narrated in my mind in a way that reminded me of the Louie Schwartzberg film “Wings of Life.” Hugs on the wing.
Wings of Life was wonderful and Meryl’s narration was lovely. Hugs flying back to you Teagan & many thanks too დ
What a lovely post! 💕
Merci beaucoup mon Ami Carol დ

Wow those are incredible photos. Amazing and beautiful.
Such pretty flowers and such pretty photos. I’m so looking forward to spring.
Some flowers look like Poppies, others more like peonies. Beautiful!
Beautiful message. Gardeners are true artists of life, transforming every space into a place of peace and beauty. A well-deserved recognition for those who care for and give life to the world.
Fantastic pictures, and that Butterfly…WOW! Double Pawkisses for a Happy Day, Cindy🐾😘💞
