I’m so sorry that I’m late getting my Green Thumb Sunday photo up!

Well, it’s still Sunday, although there’s only about 15 minutes left of it. I’ve been working all day – internet work, and I’m sick sick sick … so I think I’m I’m just going to go and lie down. I hope to get around to your sites sometime tomorrow.

I hope my American Friends are having a nice Memorial Day weekend.

Gardeners, Plant and Nature lovers can join in every Sunday, visit As the Garden Grows for more information.

Take the time to smell the flowers

by Tricia

If it wasn’t raining out I’d take the time to go for a little walkabout in my garden and smell the flowers like this adorable kitten seems to be doing.

Sweet photo isn’t it?

I know I’ve used it on one of my sites before, but I don’t think it was this one. Hopefully this photo is new to many of you who view it.

BTW my Green Thumb Sunday post is coming soon. I’m really sick today and I’ve got a lot of work to do … so I’d like to get that done first and leave the Green Thumb posts at the top when I’m finished. It’s a long weekend in the US so I figure that my USA readers might not come by until sometime on Monday anyway. The rest of you … I’ve either missed or perhaps you’ll make a return visit.

Due to my workload and illness I might not get around to Green Thumb Sites today – hopefully I’ll make the rounds tomorrow.

A colorful Marigold

This weeks Theme is Colorful

I haven’t planted any marigolds yet, but I have purchased some. They’re sitting in their little seedling containers just waiting for me to plant them. This marigold is my neighbors.

On mother’s day her family actually did some work in the yard and they planted some flowers for her. A few days later I was out taking photos of my flowers and she insisted that I take pictures of her flowers too. Funny thing is that once I started she wanted me to stop because she decided she didn’t want me to waste my film. Try explaining to a lady that’s almost 90 what a digital camera is!

I truly must be on some kind of orange kick. I have flowers of many colors but I keep wanting to post flowers with orange in them. Even this new theme that I picked out and modified for As the Garden Grows has a lot of orange in it.

Orange is not my favorite color, but for some reason I seem to be very attracted to it in the last while. Odd. I haven’t purchased all my annuals for the garden beds yet … I wonder how many of them will have shades of orange this year?
