Olivia's Book of Garden Secrets

They wondered how her lavender grew so tall and perfumed the air for miles. Roses, in colors so unusual there were no names for them, bloomed in profusion year round. Ivy climbed over the soft white sides of her cottage and blossomed with a flower that should not have been there.

 

The children crossed to the other side of the street when walking past her home. No one ever knocked upon her blue wooden door. Was is magic? Was it unrequited love that she poured into the care of her garden? Perhaps she would have confessed her secrets if someone had only stopped to ask. Amazing revelations often accompany a shared cup of tea.

 

Explored! Thank you so much!!

 

I almost resisted temptation and was going to post this as SOOC, but alas, the texture and editing options added a light touch of magic that charmed me back into my post production addiction. :) Texture by www.flickr.com/photos/zstheday/3401905288/
