Winter has just begun and it feels like it has been winter for months now. Soon I will start my countdown to Spring which I have done each year since I have been blogging.
This is a picture of the wildflower bed that we had planted by the garage at home. I love the poppies and bachelor buttons, so beautiful!
I hope you all have a blessed Sunday! Stay safe and be happy!!
Beth
A good morning to you Beth. Your garden is beautiful. Wish I had more sun in my backyard to plant more flowers like this. Our winter has not been too bad so far...one big snow and cold temps. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning, Beth. We awoke to 28. Jan/Feb are always dreary months for me. I, too, look forward to spring. This is a nice photo of the poppies and BB's. I miss our flower beds at the old house. I'm thankful to have preserved the memories in pictures.
ReplyDeleteHave a good day.
Your colorful flower garden is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteIt is 24F in North West Arkansas right now and calling for a high of 44F today. I Love the 'winters' here. Living in Canada for most of my life, I look at the winters here as late fall which is my favorite season. The summers here in Arkansas are way too hot and way too humid....
Hi Twin, 28 here but temporary sun for ow. First sun in well over a week of rain and gray and flurries.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning! It is 3 above here in Minnesota. Brrr. But the sun is shining so I have no complaints.
ReplyDeleteI love your wildflower garden!
Hi Beth, Sunny here in NY windy and 28 degrees. Great photo of the wild flowers.Have a great day, Anna.
ReplyDeleteI love these very beautiful poppies and wildflowers. I meant to plant a border of them. I can't do gardening any more so perhaps I'll scatter the seeds amongst the weeds. That should be a good idea....thanks for that. happy New Year to you and yours. Joan
ReplyDeleteHi Beth -- we are off to a chilly start this Sunday out here in Arizona. I love the picture of your beautiful flowers...reminds me a a lovely bachelor button garden we had for several years by the mail box of our home in down state Illinois (Fairview Heights). I loved the blue, purple, pink and while bachelor buttons that reseeded and came up by themselves each spring! Can't get them to stay alive in the hot Arizona summers. Thanks for sharing! Have a wonderful day.
ReplyDeletei'll take that shot of spring! :)
ReplyDeleteBeth, Thanks for the picture of your flowers...makes me feel better. The sun is shining right now and no wind. I would love a week of sunshine right now. It is not to last long. I feel that you and I are just a hundred miles apart. I am in central Indiana. Take care, stay warm,and a Happy New Year to you. xoxo,Susie
ReplyDeleteNice to see something abloom and fresh looking and know that time will come again. Blessings and Happy Sunday to you- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful spring photo! I love the poppies! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeletePretty flower garden. Have a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteWe have lots of snow to look at outside our windows right now. Your flowers are a welcome sight. So pretty!
ReplyDeleteHi Beth,
ReplyDeleteLove your wild flowers, I have some seeds for wild flowers, your picture is encouraging me to scatter them.
"Happy New Year"
Hugs Nita
Love the wildflowers.... how does one go about planting wild flowers? I thought they were wild and you couldn't get seeds...
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Beth... I hope it is a healthy one filled with love and happiness!
Cold and windy here in Pennsylvania. Eight inches new snow this AM. Sure looking forward to Spring and flowers in 2013. Thanks for the lovely picture!
ReplyDeleteMy! It is cold in the "heart of Illinois!" It is good that we are able to anticipate the cheerful colors of spring flowers!
ReplyDeleteI hope you've had a good Sunday. xo Nellie
It is a lovely Sunday here in Washington as well. Not as cold as where you are, but brilliantly sunny and gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThat garden is beautiful! It is a little warmer here then there. HAPPY NEW YEAR. sandie
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely photo. Something nice to look forward too. : )
ReplyDeleteIt's supposed to get in the teens here tonight. I'll have to bundle up for my morning walk!
Wow so I won't complain about our 52 degrees here today and a bit of a wind chill coming off the ocean.. and forget ever having snow! The last time that happend here was in 1989, and then it was only an inch. : (
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Beth!
I love your photo.. It is very cold here to and I'm looking forward to spring.. Happy New Year and I'm honored to have you as a friend..God Bless.
ReplyDeleteThat is a gorgeous picture Beth. I love wild flowers, although I've never planted any. Never had an area with a ton of sun and most wild flowers love sun. Happy New Year. I hope it's a great one for you.
ReplyDeletethe flowers are so very pretty!! the colors make me wish for spring...
ReplyDeleteGorgeous flowers. I am like you. I can't wait for spring. I love winter during the month of December. But come January 1st, I am over it and it has just begun. So alas, I will await the days of warm breezes and beautiful flowers.

Well it's pretty cold here and we didn't get much snow compared to 20 miles from away. I'm with you on the countdown till spring. The days are icrementally getting longer.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Years Beth and thanks for everything!
Oh Beth I have read your previous posts and am so happy your furnace is now working and your Doctor is helping you. It has been a crazy Christmas break and I am glad to have caught up with you. Be well my friend. Hug B
ReplyDeleteI needed those flowers! I loved that. Thanks! Hugs.
ReplyDeleteWhat a colourful flower display Beth, even though poppies are a wild flower, it is surely one of the most beautiful, I just love them, We too have felt that winter has just been almost a continuation of last year, as we've now officially, had the wettest year ever, and it's cold. oh well, maybe next year.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful colors! I can't wait for spring :)
ReplyDelete10 degrees and frosty for us today...still mild for a New Year's eve in Montana. Love the flowers, it gives me a hope of the new season out there...Bless you my friend.
ReplyDeleteToday as I read this it is stinking bloody hot and I am in the kitchen cooking a baked lunch but that's ok since the air con is in the kitchen so not so hot in there...........lol
ReplyDeleteI hope you'll bless us with another picture of these poppies come spring! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI did absolutely nothing on New Years eve. It's fairly cold now but real cold weather from Cananda will be here shortly and we will be down to the teens and single digits before you know it. Oh yeah it's winter. Happy New Year Beth.
ReplyDeleteOh my has another year almost gone and soon your spring countdown will remind of us of warm weather ahead. Well I am starting spring early and heading to the desert next week to spend the rest of the winter. I do love the snow here, but we tend to hibernate and not see anyone for weeks at a time. So at least down south we are social.
