Hi Merisi, I miss visiting right now (argh! schedule!) - but hope to resume more frequent computering times in the near future. I *love* violets - one of my favorite spring things. However! Most of my varieties are fragrance free. I've paid more than I wished to buy "viola odorata" - the 'violet of poetry and song' which is supposed to be the fragrant one - but No! No smelly violets for me apparently... (Those in the picture look like the 'smelling' variety to me... Jealous).
Violets
That smells good here, I always liked this smell!
ReplyDeleteMore signs of spring!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to set the bowl on a purple background.
ReplyDelete"Roses are red
Violets are blue
So are my lips
Spring is well overdue..."
