LE PETIT JARDIN

White and bright and clean and light, the little garden I spotted today was full of blossoms and beauty with little fleurs reaching towards the sky to soak in the heat of the day. This sweet little garden was no bigger than a postage stamp but retained the dignity and impact of a botanical garden of enormity.

It really was the epitome of strength in beauty as oppose to strength in size and it was a joy to behold.

This weekend I am joining
Summer Sundays and Today's Flowers.
Please feel free to click on the links
to the right to view some spectacular
photographs by some incredibly
talented individuals.

I hope this weekend brings you 
some much needed respite from the hot sun
and some joy to your heart.

Until Next Time.

  2. A very charming cottage garden! The placement of plants draws your eye from one color to the next. Just very pleasing to the eye!
    The clematis and the poppy photos, well, as they all are, are just beautiful.
