“The Earth laughs in flowers.”

Do you have a green thumb?
I most certainly do not. I developed a recent fondness for having fresh flowers at home and am now able to keep them alive much longer because I’m diligent about changing the water, adding a touch of sugar, and trimming any dead flowers. But I haven’t really tried my hand at planting fruits, vegetables or other foliage. But I recall seeing pictures of bright purple lavender fields in France and red and yellow tulips in Amsterdam and it makes me want to develop a better sense of horticulture someday. I saw these pictures above and was also instantly a little happier because of the bright and cheery colors. I hope that you have the chance to get into a garden, smell some fresh flowers, and have a little floral brightness in your day!
Have a lovely week!
Unfortunately my thumb is black and for that reason my husband won’t let me near any of our plants. Fortunately he has a green thumb 🙂
Rowena, it’s good to hear that your husband has a green thumb! My husband unfortunately isn’t great with plants either so we’re stuck with just a few fresh flowers here and there!
This fashion editorial is so beautiful. No, I don’t have a green thumb either. HAHAHA I’ve never been an outdoorsy girl. I love fresh flowers.

I don’t really know if I have one or not but I do know that I’ve become obsessed with fresh flowers. I need to have a few nearby at all times! Also, that RWE quote is one of my faves

I love this…flowers are so beautiful. I love gardens and all that, but not sure how much of a green thumb I actually have, haha!! I do have plants in my house and they are surviving, so I guess I’m doing something right, ha!! Have a great day doll xx
I just love fresh, blooming buds during the spring. We’re planning to start sprucing up our yard, so here’s hoping things go well!
Beautiful pictures! I wish I had a green thumb, but even my cactus died…
LOL, I may not do well with a cactus either so don’t worry, you’re not the only one 🙂
Flowers always make me happier. I buy them for myself all the time…no special occasion necessary.
