july at roger's gardens

Anytime I get the chance, I stop by Roger’s Gardens

for a little stroll through their amazing and

luxurious nursery just for fun

and a little inspiration!

Today was one of those special days,

where I had a few minutes to wander,

before an appointment.

This rain chain made with stones and

chunks of gorgeous turquoise glass

really caught me attention! 

Some of the vignettes they create

are really breathtaking…

They work wonders with 

succulents and cacti.

These spiny happy cacti are a mix

of the most gorgeous colors…

And this regal lion set against

the amazing green wall was

my favorite little

slice of scenery today.

I hope you enjoy these little
snapshots,

and a few of my favorite garden quotes...

“Garden as though

you will live forever.”

--  William Kent

"No occupation is so delightful

to me as the culture of the earth,

and no culture comparable

to that of the garden."

-- Thomas Jefferson

"The best place to find God

is in a garden.

You can dig for him there."

--   George  Bernard  Shaw

"We can complain because rose bushes have thorns,

or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses." 

--  Abraham Lincoln

“Gardening is learning, learning, learning.

That’s the fun of it.

You’re always learning.”

--  Helen Mirren

“Flowers always make people better, happier,

and more helpful; they are sunshine,

food and medicine for the soul.”

-- Luther Burbank

I hope your Monday was special!
