This spring, one of my amaryllis is blooming a second time, just before spring gives way to summer. This is abnormal behavior for these beauties – but I’ll take it!

The blooms at Glover Gardens are bursting with colorful chaos, almost singing aloud their joy at opening their faces to the sun, preening in their magnificence. I can’t go outside without stopping to admire each one, and feeling the peace of nature wash over me like waves crashing along the shoreline.

There’s proof that flowers make us happy – it’s in our DNA! Check out some beautiful blooms and get happy yourself.
