Round and Round We Go...
The final countdown begins today for our third blogoversary in a week and the end of August. Let's face it, summer is coming to an end. To celebrate a new cycle and the never ending cycle of life, I'll be posting all thing round this week.
This year, with the exception of lawn cutting and some trimming, I let nature take over in garden and grow tangled and wild with interesting results. Instead of manicured mania, I conjectured: what would happen if I let this or that grow without weeding or pruning? One surprise from the experiment was founding these tiny weed flowers no bigger than my thumbnail. On closer inspection, they displayed intricate detail and beauty. Maybe they aren't even weeds?

Those are beautiful. Gather the seeds for next Spring and offer them as a gift of Spring. I would like them.

I love these tiny flowers that spring up everywhere of their own accord. The difference between a weed and a flower is purely hypothetical.
