A woody perennial flowering plant of the genus Rosa, in the family Rosaceae. There are over three hundred species and thousands of cultivars. They form a group of plants that can be erect shrubs, climbing, or trailing, with stems that are often armed with sharp prickles. Flowers vary in size and shape and are usually large and showy, in colours ranging from white through yellows and reds. Most species are native to Asia, with smaller numbers native to Europe, North America, and northwestern Africa. Species, cultivars and hybrids are all widely grown for their beauty and often are fragrant. Roses have acquired cultural significance in many societies. Rose plants range in size from compact, miniature roses, to climbers that can reach seven meters in height. Different species hybridize easily, and this has been used in the development of the wide range of garden roses. 21832

"I appreciate the misunderstanding I have had with Nature over my perennial border. I think it is a flower garden; she thinks it is a meadow lacking grass, and tries to correct the error."
While weeding my flower garden, I noticed this perennial flower has returned. Of course, so have the various weeds and grasses. I can hardly wait to photograph this plant in all of its lovely stages. It is one of those plants that bring me pleasure, no matter the season.

I thought this was "Swamp Milkweed", but my neighbor Katherine corrected me. It's actually called Purpletop Vervain or Verbena bonariensis! (It was in her garden!}

Dahlia is a genus of bushy, tuberous, herbaceous perennial plants native to Mexico. The stems are leafy, ranging in height from as low as 30 cm to more than 1.8–2.4 m. The majority of species do not produce scented flowers. Like most plants that do not attract pollinating insects through scent, they are brightly colored, displaying most hues, with the exception of blue. The dahlia was declared the national flower of Mexico in 1963. Dahlias are perennial plants with tuberous roots, though they are grown as annuals in some regions with cold winters. While some have herbaceous stems, others have stems which lignify in the absence of secondary tissue and resprout following winter dormancy, allowing further seasons of growth. As a member of the Asteraceae, the dahlia has a flower head that is actually a composite (hence the older name Compositae) with both central disc florets and surrounding ray florets. 32250
Annual tradition of mass destruction
In the name of total reconstruction
My biggest source of confusion
The reason of decay and disillusion
Fast das ganze Jahr über in Blüte! (Bellis perennis, Gänseblümchen)
Almost the whole year in bloom!

On my first day in Scotland last month, I went on a short walk around the town of Aberfoyle. This is one of the many flowers that I saw.
Oh, wonderful Lobelia,
Born in the high Mount Kenya
Your Flowers are some lovely Chimes
Which sing not only during Nights
But are of Beauty in their Colours
Which do attract not only Lovers
You catch the Dew Drops in the Morning
Before another Day is dawning

A bulbous perennial to 15cm in height, with paired, strap-shaped leaves and starry, white-centred, bright blue flowers 3cm in width, borne in clusters of 2-3 on a leafless stem..The sweet nectar hidden among the brightly coloured petals of early spring flowers can be a lifeline for hungry insects.
Some species of bee, such as honeybees meanwhile don’t hibernate, so they will become more active and start collecting nectar as soon as your spring flowers arrive. There are even some species of butterfly that will be migrating back to the UK from warmer climes, so will need plenty of nectar after their long trip
The dandelion is a perennial, herbaceous plant with long, lance-shaped leaves. They're so deeply toothed, they gave the plant its name in Old French: Dent-de-lion meaning lion's tooth.
Kniphofia also called tritoma, red hot poker, torch lily, knofflers or poker plant, is a genus of perennial flowering plants in the family Asphodelaceae. It is native to Africa. Herbaceous species and hybrids have narrow, grass-like leaves 10–100 cm long, while evergreen species have broader, strap-shaped foliage up to 1.5 m long. All plants produce spikes of upright, brightly coloured flowers well above the foliage, in shades of red, orange and yellow, often bicoloured. The flowers produce copious nectar while blooming and are attractive to bees and sunbirds. In the New World they may attract sap-suckers such as hummingbirds and New World orioles. S10N_96

This photo was taken on perennial glacier of Mount Cevedale, in the Italian Alps at 3300 meters, one of the few sunny days in the mountains this summer, which allowed me to take this shot, with a piece of blue sky.
Joyce Kilmer wrote a poem titled Trees. It began, 'I think that I shall never see a poem lovely as a tree.' Just gazing upon this photograph, it inspired me to create my own short poem. 'I think that I shall never see a flower as lovely as yon poppy. Her petals reach up to the sky as if she might yet one day fly. No other bloom makes my heart beat fast, I just wish your dear petals would last. With oh such glory upon the ground, I think I'll never wear a frown.'

This autumn feels like funeral to me
The longest song of grief
And not for what has passed
But for what shall last… Tatiana Shmailyuk
We stand here not to escape the universe, but to find ourselves within it.
Side by side, backs to the room and faces to the stars, we let the vastness breathe around us. Beyond the glass, nebulae burn softly and galaxies exhale light into the dark, a view few ever see, and fewer still understand.
In this stillness, we see each other clearly.
She carries light in her stillness, a quiet resolve shaped by compassion rather than anger. He bears the weight of countless decisions, each measured not by victory, but by consequence. Where one of us sees what can be healed, the other sees what must be defended. Alone, we would have failed. Together, we endure.
Everything outside us is loud, opinions, doubts, interruptions that try to name our love or pull it apart. There are setbacks. There always are. Moments where peace feels fragile and harmony is tested by hands that do not belong in our story.
But we keep choosing each other.
We have learned that love is not untouched by conflict, it survives it. That peace is not silence, but staying when it would be easier to walk away. Justice, for us, is meeting each other with honesty and care, even when it hurts.
Nothing stands between us.
Not the noise.
Not the distance.
Not envy.
Not careless words.
Not the storms.
We remain, quietly, steadily and that is our strength.
