“Winter is the mother-nurse of Spring, Lovely for her daughter’s sake, Not unlovely for her own: For a future bud in everything; Grown, or blown, Or about to break.” — Christina Rossetti (1830–1894), “There is a Budding Morrow in Midnight”

A collage of close-up botanical photographs showing late-winter buds and early blossoms including pink-tinged viburnum flowers, pale yellow winter honeysuckle, swelling leaf buds, and a single white snowdrop with green markings. Soft, muted backgrounds emphasise the quiet transition from winter dormancy to early spring growth.

Named after Iris, the Greek goddess associated with the rainbow, the iris has long been valued for its colours and form. These qualities inspired its use in medieval manuscripts, early herbals and botanical illustration, where colour and structure were studied. #FolkloreSunday

A square collage of nine iris photographs, each showing a different variety in bloom. The flowers range from deep indigo and violet to soft lilac, pale blue, cream and warm yellow, with intricate veining and colour contrasts on the falls and standards.

Violets have long been associated with secrecy. Growing low and overlooked, they came to symbolise feelings and truths kept close rather than spoken aloud. In older belief silence itself could carry meaning, and violets stood for promises honoured without words. #FairytaleTuesday

Close view of small purple violets growing low among green leaves, partly hidden in dappled spring shade.

A photograph showing a close up shot of a bunch of pine needles covered in a thick layer of ice in the foreground. The background is blurred in a bokeh style as the sunlight reflects on the ice particles on the surrounding pine branches.

Time for a cool down ~ TGIF friends! (E) #scape to Vancouver BC, Canada with me & feel the cool breeze off the waters. #waterscape #landscape #EastCoastKin #Photography #PhotographersOfBluesky #PhotographersUnited

Off the coast of Bowen Island, British Columbia, Canada. Blue waters and blue sky pull together the beautiful mountain terrain of the island. White puffy clouds hang low in the sky and reflect off the water.

I 🩷 this bougainvillea bought last week! No idea where to plant it, but the cherry-blossom-like colors makes me smile every time I see it, and that's enough. 🌱🌿 #flowers #bloomscrolling #flowerfeed #dailyflowers #gardening

All these Photos are of Russian Sage/Salvia. It has an airy, wispy appearance with silvery-green leaves and violet-blue flowers. In the back ground are which have not yet bloomed and green boxwood shrubs.

Visited the Littlefield trial garden at the University of Maine in Orono yesterday. Started in the 60s to test plant hardiness, you'll find 6 acres of magnolias, lilacs and dozens of trees, with over 2500 plants in total. A beautiful place for a wander. 🌱
