They appear first in the spring So I can eat their greens, Their beautiful flowers pop up in my backyard To show that spring is really here. Then I get to blow their puffballs So I can make a wish …
When I slow down I realize These plants have a lot to say.
What do they teach me?
Resilience Playfullness Courage
Not anger Not ignorance Not hate
If I have strong roots I can survive! Their resilience gives me hope … People try to get rid of them yet they come back even stronger. Staying grounded could be their secret to prosper.
It brings back sweet childhood memories Reminding me to be playful. I like to blow on their puffballs make a wish and hope they will turn into something fruitful.
They show courage So I can conquer my fears So I can achieve my dreams. The possibilities are endless. Like a tiny seed traveling for miles across the land I have a chance to achieve something out of the ordinary.
When I am feeling anger ignorance hate The spirit of the dandelions is here to support me in my life journey.
This plant is so powerful, What a great teacher bringing me so much inspiration.
What a lovely morning! I woke up to the birds chirping in my backyard. Spring is here! It is finally here after the long winter.
The chilly, fresh air is filled with new energy I started walking around to see what was happening. To my surprise I saw many plants waking up after their long winter slumber.
Well hello my friends!
The Wild Geraniums and the Creeping Charlies are still here from last fall. Yes they are always here but it is nice to see them again now.
The fragrant Wild Geranium overwinters under the wet snow. It is great when you need a potent astringent or just want to look beautiful.
The long forgotten Creeping Charlie is an evergreen perennial available all year long and even under the snow. Think of it when you need protection, it was once was called a heal-all.
Under the pine trees, the Hellebore flowers are peaking through the snow, It is quite the show but for me the true sign of spring comes when my native plants show.
The Dandelion leaves are coming up like every year ready to start spring. Make a salad with its bitter leaves to get you through spring.
The gentle Mullein rosettes are peering through the snow Their tender leaves are ready to comfort you in your sorrows.
Yarrow with its finely cut leaves just started to show. They are here to heal your wounds internal or external.
Motherwort like a tough mother is here whether you like it or not. It may clear away your unwanted tension and energy.
Elderberry shoots are moving up and out, ready to try to get you through troubled times. Respect it, As it lives in the world of fairies.
Hello all my lovely garden allies! It was such a delight to check in with you all. Feeling the energy of the spring In my garden.
