Love is the flower you've got to let grow.

I hope all is well in your neck of the woods! I've been very busy with work, so I'm a bit slow on making blog visits lately. My apologies. (I'm doing great, though, so I can't complain.)
Whenever I look at flowers, it makes me smile. Flowers can make the most simple rooms lavish and fabulous! It's great to have flowers in your house. I like to put fresh flowers on my kitchen table where I can smell them and enjoy them as it is where we spend most of our time. It's always a good go-to spot for me.
Have the flowers been blooming where you live?
Hope you have a beautiful weekend, my dears! xx

Well done Betty, you've made the flower so pretty, brilliant. And, for the link.
I didn't know that was a tulip, and I like that I couldn't tell what it was.
Thanks for the blog suggestions.
Hugs for a great weekend, Betty.

It is true, is the Love Flower to be left to grow.
As Confucius said:
"You ask me why I buy rice and flowers? Buy rice to live and flowers to have something to live for."
Beautiful and Cute Post.

Φιλάκια!!
Dimi..
This is a surprise and a delight to find my name among the blog mentions. Thank you so much!!
I like the idea of doing a study like what you did with the tulip. Your blogging has such a friendly and edifying way about it. I love to visit!
The video was fascinating, and I had to wonder what it must be like to spend as much time as they did looking for footage of those remarkable birds. I laughed though when he called it a "miracle of evolution." That phrase is a paradox, isn't it?
Beautiful !!!...enjoy the weekend...love Ria...xxx...
Very pretty, yes, I like your love in all versions, pure fantasy!
Betty, your tulips images are lovely! And I loved the video, very pretty and exotic birds. I wish you a happy weekend!
I really like your tulip study. We got home tonight from the beach and found some beautiful iris in bloom.
Wonderful macros, Betty, and beautiful variations!
Beautiful study Betty! Perfect for Mother's Day weekend. The lilacs are starting to bloom here. The last of my tulips are a deep purple. Of course the for-get-me-nots are a blue delight.
Have a lovely week end filled with love and sunshine.
I love flowers too1
Happy Mother's Day!
Those are just amazing.
How very gorgeous!
Thanks for listing my blog. It is true what you say about flowers. I am looking after a friends garden while she is away and she said I could cut the roses. I'm so excited to have roses in the house.
...hello dear Betty, my wife loves the flowers in the house, and I'm really comfortable with my spirit. Hug and kiss. Good Sunday. Photo of a unique beauty...
Amazing shots of the flowers! Love them.
how lovely! have a great weekend :)
Beautiful!

Have a great weekend:-)
Hi there!
WOW! breathtaking!
thanks for sharing that birds video-just amazing.
ναι ναι άνθησαν τα λουλούδια τα πουλάκια κελαηδάνε και είναι τόσο όμορφα..ειδικά όταν απομακρύνεσαι απο τον "πολιτισμό" και τους ανθρώπους...τότε είναι παράδεισος!!
έχω κι άλλο διαγωνισμό με δώρο δυο κολιέ γατένια αν σε ενδιαφέρει μπορείς να ρίξεις μια ματιά εδώ http://mayasfairytale.blogspot.gr/2013/05/mayasfairytale-2-meeoooow-o.html πολλά γατοφιλάκια και happy weekend!!!!
Feliz dia das mães por aí e tudo de bom!beijos,chica
I have lots of windows in my house...with no curtains...so I can look out at flowers and beauty. Love tulips so much. None in my yard. Maybe next year.
It's fun when you can paint the flowers any colour you like! :)
Stunning beautiful macros!
sandra wilkes, i love windows in a house with no curtains!
your house sounds lovely!:)
Wonderful birds.
That I love to see by myself.
i have seen that video before. it is truly amazing! such creatures that exist in our world. :)
texwisgirl, so glad you enjoyed it!:))
Thanks for featuring me, Betty. You are sweet... I do love flowers --all kinds. Right now, our Irises, Azaleas and Rhododendrons are blooming. SO pretty.
We just got home from a week at Ocean Isle Beach, North Carolina. Had a fabulous time....
Happy Mother's Day.
Hugs,
Betsy
Yes - lovely flowers abound around here. Love your tulip photos.
These are absolutely beautiful I love how you have captured the delicate nature of the petals

Beautiful captures. Tulips are one of my fave flowers.
I was here and loved your photos and your sentiment.
Your flower study is gorgeous. In the spirit of O'Keeffe! Happy Mother's Day, and thanks for visiting!
Preciosa flor y excelente el procesado que le has aplicado. Me gustan.
Feliz Domingo. Un abrazo.

Gorgeous study! Real artwork!
Thank you so much for joining Floral Love!
Lindas imagens! Uma excelente publicação!
Feliz dia da Mãe!
unusual shots for a tulip. Love the idéa. :)
Lovely images! Nothing like fresh flowers to brighten up one's world!
Thank you so much for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. I do appreciate it, and figured I'd return the favor. Glad I did, too. Your photos are beautiful.
Yes, I love flowers, too, but don't have cut ones in the house as often as I used to. Our cats also like cut flowers. They seem to think any plants they find in the house are their own personal salad bars.
La mejor medicina para el corazón,
es que lo llenemos de amor.
Te entrego las primeras gotas de rocío
para comenzar a cuidarlo...
...no te olvides de recogerlas.
Entre ellas se encuentra
una semilla de felicidad!!
Que este sea un delicioso
comienzo de semana para ti!!
