It looks like someone has indicated in Florists Review how large displays should look. All located far from each other yet they have the same feel.

Just back from a trip to Ireland where things were very green and pretty. In a parks rose garden I found these beauties.
Then I looked in my back yard today.
Hope you are having a beautiful day. #todaysblooms
I’ll take whatever blooms and makes it pretty. Leaving town for a couple of days so I ran out in the cold-ish and wind to see what was happening. Again a plant gives me a smile by producing a bloom long after it should be done for the season. I also like the amazing colors of the leaves and double duty . Enjoy.
Some years we have had our first measurable snow by this time. Most of the flower gardens and vegetable gardens are done until next year
I know some parts of the country are just getting into the second planting. Not here. I had a very pleasant surprise however. I was downtown in our town and found these large planters in a protected mall area. It has buildings on two sides, north and south. The overhead and the other sides are open. Beautiful Blooms. Enjoy.

Today’s Blooms are from street art I recently encountered. We have already had some early frost and snow so the outdoor Blooms are pretty much restricted for several months. My thought was to move it inside then I remembered this beautiful space.
Walking down the street I encountered some beautiful street art. I have a lot of those photos from the sides of buildings and 30 feet tall. I took a lot of those photos while living in Alaska which got me started here.
This is my first encounter with it looking down. These are sidewalks painted by various artists. Most are at intersections and are walked on daily. Beauty is truly all around us.
I feel very lucky to have stumbled upon a new way to see flowers and all their beauty in a different form.

Today’s offerings on Blooms spoke to me as I walked about. They all were popping their heads over the fence saying “pick me.” How did they know the camera was aimed at them.😍
THE RULES:
August 8, 2022, prompt: In 99 words (no more, no less), write a story about “the one who left the dress.” A 1940s-era dress still hangs in an abandoned house. Who left it and why? You can take any perspective and write in any genre. It can be a ghost story. Or not. Go where the prompt leads!
MY CONTRIBUTION:
Closets are small or non-existant, most of us don’t have a lot of clothes. My sister, brother and I share a dresser, we each have one drawer and the 4th is everyone’s socks.
Except for the closet under the stairs which has some clothes that no one wears.
Who gave us those things?
Why has mama never worn this blue dress, did this belong to her sister who died after getting so sick.
Was she afraid the dress would make her sick too and she would have to move away?
The doctor said grandma is doing very well today.
Too many to choose from!
It’s hard to pick just one bloom.
