Friday Hope Day 

A seed germinates. A bee finds a flower. New leaves appear on an old tree.

The living world is under pressure.

And there is still so much here to notice, protect and love.

That is worth holding onto.

Never tire of the unique shape of Milkweed blooms. 🥰

Five beautiful shell shaped whisper pink/white petals fan out with delicate lines tracing intricate patterns through each one.

Joy is not a luxury.

It's a necessity.

Find it in small things. A breath. A stretch. A moment of stillness.

You deserve joy today.

DM me 'JOY' for a free session. 🙏💙

A little sunlight can turn a familiar crystal into something you want to look at all over again. The tiny details are part of the fun: an inclusion, a pocket of sparkle, a color you hadn’t noticed. What small thing made you smile today? ✨

#RoyalGemsAndMinerals #CrystalCommunity #SmallJoys

A pale lavender grape agate cluster with tiny rounded botryoidal formations and cream-colored ridges rests among painted cream and mauve flowers on a warm lavender-and-gold watercolor background. Above it, the text reads: “I make room for small joys. Beauty is worth noticing.” The Royal Gems and Minerals logo sits at the bottom.

Another discovery from the back of the deepest garden bed—more beautiful Clematis seedheads weaving through the chainlink fence set aglow by setting sun.

Hundreds of fluffy “beards” clinging to the fence.

We can grieve what is being lost
and delight in what is here.

We can worry about the future
and laugh until our sides hurt.

We can care deeply about a troubled world
and love our life within it.

We don't have to choose.

Golden blooms for good luck that we get promised rain Thursday. The threatened #NativePlants Jamesianthus alabamensis we keep alive by growing it in our garden & Calendula ‘Strawberry Blonde’ make quite the couple.

Deep golden yellow composite Jamesianthus blooms & heavily layered pompon-like Calendula.

Sometimes joy is very small.

The first strawberry ripening. Sunlight across the kitchen floor. A bird having an enthusiastic bath.

These moments don't solve anything.

They remind us that while difficult things are happening, life is happening too.

Another #February2Frost late bloomer you may not have considered is Abelia. This is ‘Ruby Anniversary’ which usually starts blooming late July when Mr. CMG & I celebrate ours & keeps putting out new flushes until frost.

#gardening #bloomscrolling #FlowerReport #SmallJoys #UrbsInHorto #Chicago 🌱

Subtle tubular white blooms with a lovely fragrance and faded dusty pink bracts that start off a rich red.

Throwback to beautiful hardy Gladiolus communis ssp byzantinus from May for #MagentaMonday #PinkMon.

#gardening #bloomscrolling #FlowerReport #SmallJoys #UrbsInHorto #Chicago 🌱

Elegant arching magenta blooms on a softly curving stem, each one revealing an inviting tubular entrance for #pollinators.

High of 85F today; 60F with rain (please!) on Thursday; then more normal temps after that but still no frosts in 10-day forecast so still enjoying beautiful pristine roses like this ‘Desdemona’.

#gardening #bloomscrolling #FlowerReport #SmallJoys #UrbsInHorto #Chicago 🌱

A wide cupper white rose bloom with overlapping petals and still a peek at accessible yellow center for #pollinators. Deep green healthy foliage makes a nice background despite the rollercoaster temps.

Found a little bit of sunshine #SundayYellow backlit by the fading light.

#gardening #bloomscrolling #FlowerReport #SmallJoys #UrbsInHorto #Chicago 🌱

A beautiful pale yellow rose with deeper yellow stripe down the petals and a golden center with a background of golden setting sun in the black windmill obelisk that mirrors the simple shape of the flower.

Joy doesn't require the world to be all right.

A bird calling. Something flowering. A warm cup in your hands. A dog doing something ridiculous.

The difficult things still matter.

These things matter too.
