Delray Beach- May Flowers

 

This has been a very busy week and I am scratching my head wondering where April went. It was a reminder that with the coming of May, for many up north it means May flowers...brought on by April showers.

I tied this orchid to a tree two years ago and it finally bloomed!

This one is for Barbara Todaro ...we saw this gentleman working out on the beach.  If you have to work out, this is certainly better than the inside of a gym.

Have a weekend spending time to

Stop and smell the roses...or any other flowers you may see.

Good morning Kathy Streib ,

I'm still in shock that May 1st begins on Monday! Flowers always brings a smile to my face. Granddaughter hailey is in Holland and loves the tulips!

Kathy, Enjoying the Spring season here and the blossoming of our flowers.  Many more to come!  And today we're getting the April showers accompanied by lots of thunder!

What lvoely flowers and pictures, Kathy. Like Dorie Dillard I am still sort of gob-smacked that it's May already in just another day.

So, that isn't a picture of Barbara Todaro working out on the beach?  I was thinking that person didn't look strong enough to be her, haha.

Grant Schneider my short time living in the mid-Atlantic region taught me to appreciate warmer weather coming. 

Sharon Lee i've found that the less I do to and for my orchids the better they grow and flower. 

Joe Pryor Many of my friends have placed their orchids on trees.  They like being there too.

I don't know Barbara Todaro somehow that beach has your name written all over it. 

Dorie Dillard what a perfect time to be there!!!  Hailey is having a memorable experience.  Saw Sarah yesterday and they love Austin.

Liz and Bill Spear just think about how your flowers will grow after that!!!  We could use showers. 

Nina Hollander I'll be posting about hurricane season soon!

Brian England We saw him jogging after that, with what looked like a very heavy backpack on.  Wow.

Kathy Streib ~ hi Kathy... hurricane season is certainly nothing to be looking forward to.

Hi Kathy - Mary loves orchids and grows a bunch of them, but only indoors in our climate. It would be so cool to have them growing on trees like they do in the jungle.

Great quotes! I didn't know that flowers make people more helpful....maybe parents of teens should consider having more flowers in the house!

Fabulous pics Kathy! I love the saying also.  I think the one about the volcano is a good analogy.  Very creative to hang an orchid from a tree. It adds a different dimension to the flower when blooming.

Barbara Todaro someday...the beach will be waiting for you. 

Nina Hollander you and I will have much to write about. 

Roy Kelley you are the one who always inspires us to carry a camera with us.

Dick Greenberg when we lived in Leesburg, VA, it took me about 2 hours each week to hand water all of my indoor orchids!  I couldn't wait for late May to come!

Sharon Tara I don't think even a flower could do that.

Myrl Jeffcoat Thank you so much.  And I wish you the same!!!

Sheri Sperry - MCNE® And one good thing is that if there is a storm or hurricane, they're relatively safe being tied to the tree.  Well....unless the tree goes!
