"Every flower is a soul blossoming in nature."
- Gerard De Nerval
Never has this been more true for me. These pretty little pink flowers are blooming on my big sister, Barb's shamrock plant.
Barb was killed on November 15, 2017 in a head-on collision. She was living with me at the time, so I still have all of her things here, including her plants.
Barb loved everything Celtic, and her shamrocks were her pride and joy. A part of her soul was definitely in every pot of them that she ever had.
The shamrocks have done very well outside this summer. I like to think that a part of Barb comes back in these plants every time a blossom blooms and dies.
This one's for you, Barbie. I miss you more than words can say.

"The U-Drop Inn", also known as "Tower Station and U-Drop Inn" and "Tower Café", was built in 1936 in Shamrock, Texas along the historic Route 66 highway.
I noticed this spider as it hung from a web strand attached to the brim of my cap and was dangling in front of my eyes. It is not a tiny spider, about 3/4 " including legs,
I took off my cap and lowered it to a blade of grass which the spider then grabbed. The subsequent shots made my day.

Actually, a False Shamrock, part of the Wood Sorrel species (Oxalis Regnellii.) Learn something new every day.
Thanks for Viewing.
I'm lucky that he embraces my dorky holiday looks and matches them <3
Happy St. Patty's day a little early.
Green. Plant. Wild. Leaves. Love.
Love finding these beautiful little creations here and there! Love in nature ♡ Also, the colour green of them is my fave. In my opinion, not too dark, not too light, quite soft and neutral among all the other greens.
Cape shamrock
Also known as: Bowie's wood-sorrel, Shamrock
The appearance of the cape shamrock consists of three leaflets that look like a clover with vibrant pink flowers. They may be considered weeds by others, but they make excellent houseplants or ground cover. They are fast-growing and generally bloom in the fall or spring.
The shamrock is an Irish national symbol. The shamrock is a young clover plant with three leaves. The word shamrock is the English spelling of the Irish word seamróg, a shortening of seamair óg, which means young clover. The shamrock was, according to legend, used by Saint Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland and the person who brought Christianity to Ireland, to explain the divine Trinity. Later the shamrock became an unofficial symbol of Ireland. (The official symbol is the harp).
