This week’s Sunday Stills photo challenge is all about plant life. Many folks are still limited to where they can go, but we can all walk in our backyards and gardens and enjoy plant life. While there, why not snap a few new pics to share with us this week?
To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow.

My hydrangeas love the warm May weather.
Captured just as the hydrangea began blooming…
Just days later, now in full bloom!
I was blessed to take a road trip last month to visit our property in Washington State and take care of some details. More about that next week!
The day we drove to look at our property, the ground was alive with coneflowers and purple lupine. I took that as a sign that we will love this property when we move there!
We also enjoyed a second Spring in Washington. I actually had to ask what kind of trees these were! Pink Dogwoods, by the way.
Not only did we make the drive to Washington in May, that same week we took two more short road trips through Memorial Day weekend!
We drove past a vast Oregon orchard…
To a thistle-framed sunset in the Sacramento River Delta,
To the delicate sunlit oak in the Sierra foothills,
…Plant life is everywhere.
The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.

Looking forward to another summer of plumeria and sunflowers blooming in my backyard.
Happy 80th birthday this week to my mom in Heaven. She loved her garden and was ecstatic when her yellow hibiscus grew and flourished.

I am excited to see what creative ideas you have showing plant life for Sunday Stills this week!
