Okay, I'm still feeling deep guilt for my Farm Town addiction and lack of blogging lately, so I decided I'd better at least do Susan's Outdoor Wednesday. I'm hoping this will keep me in your good graces. Please make sure to visit Susan at A Southern Daydreamer because there are lots of OW participants!Recently I bought some peach sunrise lantana, and boy are they beautiful when they're in their prime. Just look at those unique buds. Are they not exquisite? You can click to make the pics larger.
There's something so precious about a rose not yet opened to the sun...
The life of a magnolia blossom is so fleeting, that if you don't enjoy it while it's there, it will probably be withered and gone tomorrow.
I love watching a fern reaching out its curled-up arm, unfurling itself to grasp the sun's light...
And at the end of the day, when the sun dips below the horizon, it's time for the plants to rest and rejuvenate for the next day.
Pssst! If you love me, you might love my sister more. Go visit her at Jill's Believe it or Not, and tell her I sent you!

Beautiful!!!
GORGEOUS! I JUST realized that I hadn't been following you. What kinda friend am I?!?!?!? :) Preeeeeeeeeeaaaashe Forgive me! :)
Your blog is soooo funny! I came here from Susan's and can see I'll have to come back for more laughs! Love the flowers you posted, I did one of a magnolia bloom that had just opened.
If you ever make it down to Madeira Beach, Florida be sure to eat at the Frog Pond, I think you'd love their decor!
Wow J you are quite the photographer! The flowers look so healthy and happy, puts mine to shame! I love the peachy lantana. I just bought a few things Saturday, I'll put them on the next post of pictures. Hope you are having a good week, its going so slow for me! xo
Wow! Are those all in your yard? Those pics are amazing, my flowers don't look half as pretty!
You are becoming quite the "farmer"
and landscaper.
Happy Outdoor Wednesday Justine! Don't you just love lantana? So many pretty colors!Thanks for sharing your photos.~ Susan
PS Love your sister more? Hah... I think not! :)
Great photos but where's Strudel?!? Have you bought the white farmhouse yet? ☺ Diane
Your photos are lovely. Thank you for sharing them with us. Have a wonderful day.
Really pretty pics!
You have gorgeous flowers, Justine. The antique store owner was very accomodating, had the armoire picked up and returned my full check so she did not make me pay for anything I bought that day. It is more than I had hoped for so I can't really complain...Christine
Beautiful. So, when you're sowing your seeds, do you do it with a piece of straw between your teeth? How about overalls and flannel? I'm just curious how the whole farming phenomena translates into real life;)
I'm so impressed with your green thumb! You also take beautiful pictures!
Beautiful flowers! I'm still workin on that farmer thingy...I'm such a dork!
Hugz,
Michele

Hey Farmer Justine! Lovely flowers! OOOH and the rose is spectacular!
What a poetic post!! You're so talented with the words!
Do you know I went out and bought lantanas and I have them growing wild in my backyard! lol!!
Blogging has sure taken a far step down for me these days...hmm maybe its cause you all got me addicted to the garden thing...hmmm?? Hugs French xoxoxo ps all your flowers are really pretty!!!
About the Magnolia, it seems just like life itself; if we don't take time to enjoy the moments, they will be gone in a flash. We once had a kind of flower that only blooms in the night, so if we did not catch its bloom, by morning it would be gone already.
You and I seem to be running on the same cosmic course lately. I got a toilet and planted a flower bed.
At least we have the east coast covered. I do the top of the map, you do the bottom.
Hey, why can't I go to your past posts? It stops in the middle "Don't forget to flush" just past the photo of the carpet.
