Don's Blog Moon Vine 11-4-24

Although it is November the moon vine has increased its number of nightly blooms.

 

The flowers are huge and gorgeous.

And they last well into the morning light.

Don's Blog Halloween Surprise 10-31-24

For years we have been visited at Halloween by this outrageously spooky

but frightening form in our window. 

Now in her golden years she has been transformed into the beautiful Queen

that was aways there.

But do not confuse this Halloween Queen with my two real Queens.

Flower for the Day Indian Summer Action 10-30-24

Here is what is growing now.

Indian paintbrush just keeps plugging away - rain or no rain. The canary colored finches love the seeds on the coneflower heads.

Here is the fruit of the trumpet vine. Its huge.

The most prolific plants these days are the dahlias.

They grow quite tall.

Flower for the Day Miniature Bouquets 10-28-24

I am so fortunate to have Jan Sessions the Artist to create miniature bouquets of 

flowers for our continued pleasure. Here are a few examples.

These bouquets show up every where.

The Bell and the Blackbird

The sound of a bell 

Still reverberating, 

or a blackbird calling from a corner of the field,

asking you to wake into this life,

or inviting you deeper into the one that waits.

Either way takes courage, either way wants

you to be nothing but that self that is no self at all, 

wants you to walk to the place where you find 

you already know how to give every last thing away.

The approach that is also the meeting itself, 

without any meeting at all.

That radiance you have always carried with you 

as you walk both alone and completely accompanied

in friendship by every corner of the world crying

Allelujah. 

David Whyte
