Flowers on a dreary day

I just took the dog outside for her last outing of the night and we were both surprised when we heard the pitter patter of ice pellets hitting the ground. Dreary weather.

I’m sure the streets of Toronto will be covered in ice by morning!

I hope that the weather is better in your area today! If it isn’t why not remember summer with me? Here are a few of the lovely flowers and greenery that I grow in my garden.

Looking at these photos and remembering much nicer days will help me forget how miserable the weather is outside today! Hopefully these pictures will also make your day a little more cheery as well.

Enjoy your Sunday!

    The images are very beautiful, but I’m actually wishing the opposite. The weather here in Sydney au is unusually hot and humid and snow would be a dream, but it never snows here. I recently posted some pictures of sokme Australian flowering trees here:

    I live in Florida so the weather is a little more pleasant than what you seem to be experiencing. Nonetheless, I enjoyed your flower pictures. Next week, my wife and I will be flying to San Diego which another place with nice winter weather. I’ll make sure to enjoy the nice weather since I know that not everyone has that opportunity.

    Holy smokes that Passion Flower is beautiful! I don’t think I’ve come across anything like that ever! Great pictures and I hope the best for your weather as it has been bloody horrible here.
