For the Flower Hour, share your images of flowers, gardens, fields of flowers, seasonal leaves, blossoms, berries, and wildflowers. Even bouquets and silk/faux flowers are welcome.
Now that the holidays are here, feel free to share close-ups of Christmas tree pine boughs, wreaths, holly berries, etc.
This week, I’m linking with Lens-Artists’: Holidays, in which I will share some festive plant-based holiday decor. Feel free to interpret the Flower Hour any way you would like with your own subtheme!
Local Holiday Fun
“It’s supposed to be jolly, with mistletoe and holly… and other things ending in olly.” – Terry Pratchett
No Snow Needed to be Festive
Even in tropical locations, people find ways to be festive. When I visited Hawaii’s Big Island in 2019, I met up with Graham, and we visited the Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden in Hilo.
We often visit our families in San Diego during the Christmas holidays. A neighbor near my daughter’s home made the most of their native decor to show its festive spirit.
Another neighbor wrapped lights around a flowering rosemary bush…double delight!
