Flowers ,how we marvel at their intricate beauty, a gift of creation.
The work of fine Artist Alexandra Brown often appears on the Blog because her deep respect for nature and amazing artistic talent help build the bridge of representational form with the natural world and poetic links of beauty and fun.
The featured image “Flowers In A Copper Bowl” is pristine and uplifting don’t you feel?
In such challenging times we can still shift our focus on all the good we have , working always to reach a humbler path of shadow understanding and resolution.
Even if you do not have a garden you can place in your living space beautiful pictures of flowers and nature,
Plants -flowering plants in pots also, the featured image shows how vibrant leaves and stalks of plants, are too so the greenery alone is also therapeutic.
If you have a garden even if a very small area you can grow plants in pots like catnip – Napeta – cataria.
The name is amusing when one considers domestic cats, Nepeta cataria for cats love catnip.!
The bees both honey bees and bumble bees adore catnip and it was wonderful to see them all swarming and magically gathering pollen from these gorgeous purple flowers in the late spring , summer through to early autumn Bees are under pressure from loss of habitat and pollution for example, so providing plants like lavender and catnip for example helps bees… Catnip is abundant in nectar and pollen yum yum bzzzz bzzzz bzzzz. bee larvae are also fed with the pollen.
Awhile ago Dr Robert Mullis and I recorded a dialogue podcast here in the archives it seems fine to present it now it t may make you smile hmm possibly .. fairies and dwarves at the bottom of the garden not of the concrete kind! The multiverse
It is called “Pathways”
