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

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.

I really did not expect to find any Blooms. Not only did they surprise me, but a couple of tomatoes survived the frost and made it into my salad.
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 flowers in my little town get changed periodically and they have brought in more fall type for now.
We have had a fair amount of rain lately, so these are from inside and outside.
These are not specialty flowers, they just brought a smile to my face when I walked into the backyard today.
Some plants putting out the best color to signal summer will soon end.
The bees were everywhere many had multiple bees enjoying the blossoms.
