Flowers- certainly nature went all out when it created them! Think about it, there are so many characteristics of flowers which make them so likable. The shape, the petals, the form, the colors, the fragrance, sometimes even the taste( I confess- I am obsessed with the taste of anything rose flavored!). Flowers truly are one of the most invaluable gifts of nature. The New York Botanical Gardens thus is one of my favorite places to go on weekends, spend time with and adore the gifts of nature. This picture with tiny little flowers all clumped to gather in a soft little ball- isn’t it a ball of joy?
