Healing Gardens...

12 years ago

Gardens have such healing effects on people. No matter how stressful I am when I am in my garden looking at the roses, everything just feels calm and relax. I am sure many of you also feel the same. Here are some of those moments (click on the images to see the larger images). Please feel free to share yours...

Livin' Easy: when the light shines on the flower at a certain angle, the flower glows.

Leaves of Bishop's Castle: even the leaves are beautiful.

Golden Celebration:

Carding Mill

I've never seen 'Carding Mill' look like that. It's gorgeous.
'Evelyn' ~~ heart be still. 'Living Easy' is tangerine here and produces even in lousy loose mountain soil. What a rose.

That first pic looks so inspirational. I think your beautiful pictures have a calming effect, probably lowers the blood pressure. My husband says that my rose garden is my "happy place."

I'm glad you like the pictures. This forum is one of my digital gardens. While I'm at work and want to give my mind a short break, I couldn't look out the windows and see the roses. So, I often look at the rose pictures online and they always have such a calm effect on my mind.

I know Sara-Ann will have something new from her garden to show. Thank you Sara-Ann, always look forward to your beautiful pictures ;) There are so many roses showing here that I can't grow them all in my small garden. Then there is Beth with her rare roses and many more. It's more than just the flowers, it's the kindness that we share with each other that makes this forum one of the healing gardens. Thank you everyone :)

I love the strings of pearls that Bishop's Castle's foliage is wearing -- but what else to expect of roses? Elegance is in their genes.
We are a fortunate lot who find our therapy in the garden.
Aloha
