As you walk down the fairway of life you must smell the roses, for you only get to play one round.  ~ Ben Hogan

This is just a simple bouquet of cream and pale pink colored roses.

Flower of the Day – Purple Salvia

***

These are medium tall flowers, with the petals going up the stalk. They are deep purple to blue in color, with some green leaves below.

Salvia is also called the Seers or Diviners Sage.

From Wiki:

Salvia divinorum (also known as sage of the diviners, ska maría pastora, seer’s sage, yerba de la pastora or simply salvia) is a plant species with transient psychoactive properties when its leaves are consumed by chewing, smoking or as a tea.[2] The leaves contain opioid-like compounds that induce hallucinations.[3]

Flower of the Day – Moss Rose

***

Just thought I’d see what flower I posted a couple of years ago, and it was this one.

This is the Moss Rose flower. It’s also called a Portulaca. I’ve grown these, and they do very well in flower pots. In the fall, there are lots of tiny seeds produced. One time the wind was blowing a lot which scattered the seeds all over our yard. Next spring they all grew. They come in all kinds of pretty colors, too.

I saw these in the refrigerated case at the store. It has a pink ice cream cone decoration in with the bouquet. The flowers look like mums, and are white and yellow, with touches of blue and pink.

I saw this cute little flower at the store yesterday. It has some dark pink flowers, and they are in a small ceramic pot that looks like a pink flamingo.

Flower of the Day – Don’t Be Shy

***

This pretty yellow flower (lots of petals & black center) seems to be peeking out from behind a large green leaf. Maybe it’s a bit shy? 🙂
