TODAY'S FLOWERS ~ Reminiscing of Glenbarr Station

Still wallowing in fond memories of the 'Enfoldments' Retreat.

Snapdragons at the dining hall door

and a big bush of these tiny flowers at our cottage door.
Sorry I can't tell you their name at present, I'm having a
senior's moment. This afternoon I had misplaced the name
of Lantana, now, when I want this one, I get Lantana instead....

A fair exchange is no robbery I suppose.

This old plum tree had been teasing us all week and just on the
last day it decided to treat us to some blossom on one branch.

Thanks to this delightful flower meme, we can all walk in fields
of flowers at will by just clicking on the Logo. Enjoy!

  1. Very pretty. I love snapdragons. For years, we had yellow ones but then we sold the house. Thanks for reminding me to get some for my garden.

  4. This retreat just keeps getting better. So nice to see your spring blooms while our trees turn to gold.

    I'm glad there's someone else in the track and scat club. ;)

  8. I like this one better than lantana. Today, I told a fellow blogger that people in South East Asia don't like them. They call it Chicken shit flower.

  9. Sigh...we head into fall and you into wonderful summer. My mother liked snapdragons...My sister and I used to pick them and make their flowers move like they were talking... Michelle
