lawns to picnic on, ducks to feed on the pond or grazing on

negotiable by wheel chairs.
My camera and I spent a happy hour there last week.

It looks a wonderful place to visit. It's so lovely to enjoy someone else's gardening work :-)
Arija, such a delightful place to spend time in surrounded by the colors and fragrances. Seems a good year for flowers.
Very lovely Arija. Would you believe that one the places that we call a botanical garden here is the very famous Cavehill Cemetery. They grow flowers, shrubs and trees there that sometimes do not even grow in a five state area. Your place looks just splendid~
What a beautiful place. Your photos of it are stunning.
Peace,

In Hawaii, those hot pink ice plant flowers are called, 'akulele'. The buds are strung together for leis and often you see the leis of these in May when they are in their peak blooming time.
So beautiful.

Oh my good heavens! SO BEAUTIFUL! Yes! I scream with delight. Ah. I love flowers. I shall settle for a vase of roses. Everything looks so boring right now. The flowers have fallen...soon the leaves will follow. Have a beautiful week my dearest Arija! Tsup!
