Spring along the Sunshine Coast

One of the joys of living along the Sunshine Coast is that spring comes early and then lasts forever.

After work, I'll zip over to Mother Nature and meander through the greenhouse aisles touching, smelling, loving the flowers. I already planted my herb garden in February and my tomatoes are crawling up the bamboo poles (and enjoying the rain). Each week I pluck a new tulip or wallflower from the garden to showcase at the Visitors Centre.

Last week I'd picked a vase full of flowers for Debbie. As I placed them on the table, Debbie had to laugh. "Elise, sometimes it's like the flowers actually speak to you." I think they do, they really do as they hold their petaled faces to the sky.

in time of daffodils(who know
the goal of living is to grow)

Clovers grow between the rocks at Mermaid Cove.

Apple blossoms are sooooo beautiful.

Oh, grow green grass ... GROW!
