Dwarf Lotus "Momo Botan" Bloom on 7-14-07

Posted by Jon at 1:25 PM
Labels: "The flowers suggest a Santa Barbara girl who gave up tennis for macrame, as if they had tried drugs and lived in Tangiers awhile. That is, they look a bit odd."

"The world is so empty if one thinks only of mountains, rivers and cities; but to know someone here and there who thinks and feels with us, and though distant, is close to us in spirit, this makes the earth for us an inhabited garden." --Goethe

A Quote from Henry Mitchell's, The Essential Earthman

"Gardening is a long road, with many detours and way stations, and here we all are at one point or another. It's not a question of superior or inferior taste, merely a question of which detour we are on at the moment. Getting there (as they say) is not important; the wandering about in the wilderness or in the olive groves or in the bayous is the whole point."
