Blog prompt: April 12 was Easter. For me, Easter is also a big celebration of spring, a time of rebirth. How does the spring season make you feel? Do you have any spring traditions that you do?

I love spring time!  Nature is starting to open up and turn green and all the beautiful colors are starting to explode.  The weather is just perfect and not too hot.  The rainy season hasn’t started, so I really enjoy going outside to work in the yard. All the butterflies will start coming around and the birds are busy at my feeders.

Living here in Florida, I can pretty much have flowers all year around.  I just planted all the pansies and violas for the winter season here in my pots.  The violas are so fragrant and beautiful.  But, in the spring all the azaleas are blooming and the colors are just beautiful.  This year they seemed to be extremely beautiful.  My hydrangeas are starting to get heads for beautiful blooms soon.  Another southern beauty.

I just love planting all the flowers and cutting back all the dead items we had from the hard winter this year.  Now the yard looks pretty much back to normal, except for the palms.  We will just have to wait for new growth and live with burned palms for awhile.

Enjoy your spring day,

Blog Prompt – Choose your favorite season. Name the season and explain why it is your favorite.

I LOVE roses and I don’t know too many people, especially all you ladies out there.  And don’t you just love it when your hubby or boyfriends surprises you with them!  What a treat that always is.

My favorite rose color is salmon.  I had always been a red rose person, but when I had to go and pick up roses for my fathers funeral, they were salmon.  That was his favorite color.  I just adored them and the color was beyond beautiful and that color of rose will always remind me of him.

I went to a site to read about roses and what the salmon color means and this is what it said:

You caught their eye, they caught your eye. There’s smoke, now there’s a chance for fire. Send orange roses, the color of desire and enthusiasm. Then, wait for passion to ignite.

1800flowers.com has a great selection of roses and 1800-Flowers is a Proud Sponsor of the American Rose Society.
