I Plant these White Lilies Today and ask The Goddess To Help Me Deal with all thats happening around me right now ..with Grace and Dignity...To Help Me Find My Place of Peace and To Show me How to Trust Myself and Tap into My Inner Strength~

Yeah, I like the way they stand out. Like a centerpiece in an otherwise boring field. I guess maybe part of my fondness for them is that they're one of the few flower types I can identify at all! lol! Before I became a banner-bearing metal-head, I used to dress in really obnoxious bright colors as a kid, (which earned me a lot of grief from classmates, and teachers alike.) So, I guess that part of me will always like Black-Eyed Susans. Honestly though, the biggest thing is I really miss that schoolyard, and being that young. It was my favorite place to be.
They grow along the roadsides in New York but..Not In Nevada...I have to buy them and plant them here If I want them in my garden...I miss seeing them wild everywhere!
I also plant these common dandelions, for while we categorize them as weeds, they are not only a natural part of life, they are also fairly pretty, and underrated. So, as well as the same reason I gave the Black-Eyed Susans, these are also for those poor folks that High-society shuns, or ignores.
This is the Black-Eyed Susan, much less exotic, and actually very awkward looking against a green field. They used to grow in the schoolyard next to my childhood home on Long Island, NY. I would bring them home for my Mom, if she was mad at me, or just because. I've always liked these best, because they are awkwrd, they stand out like sore thumbs, and yet, there aren't too many flowers I know of that look like this. So, these are for those of us who may feel a bit estranged, or out of their element wherever they go; misfits who are still very much loveable, and beautiful in their own right.
For my precious friend, Monalisa S............ January 20, 2008 4:41 PM
Mona is not a member of our Garden, but she is a special, treasured friend, and especially deserving of this tribute.
I love you, Mona!

I plant a garden for those we have lost, for those who have served, for those missing, for the lame, the forgotten, the ones whose minds and memories are damaged.
Leandra, my husband died on October 27, 2004 from a surprise massive heart attack. This was hard enough. I cannot fathom what you have gone through. I send you all my love with this rose.
For my ex ... may he one day realise what he's done and have the maturity to step up to the next plate that's offered to him. I will never forget and although I try, I struggle to forgive.
There is no garden for me to grow, not even flowers near by for me to show, but into town the other day I did go, these are flowers that no hands did sow, jus a pretty arangement, for my friends in the garden I wanted to show!!!! with lots of love fae me to you .........Fawn
I will plant this mauve rose of sharon for all of the pain caused by other people that needs to be forgiven so that the bitterness can stop and the healing can begin.
So many people do not realize this...if they are wronged, they do not realize that forgiveness is necessary...you don't have to forget, but yes, you need to forgive to be able to heal yourself as well as others.... I had to learn this the "hard" way....thanks for planting this flower and thought....I would like to see it grow!
I will plant this mauve rose of sharon for all of the pain caused by other people that needs to be forgiven so that the bitterness can stop and the healing can begin.
I am planting beautiful, fragrant pink roses of self love & healing in the garden for my families, friends, the world, myself. May we all heal where we need to in order to live a more balanced loving life, the life our divine intended us to live. I plant these roses with love.
I'm planting this little clump of wild Primroses in the hope that by next Spring, the families of the victims in Monday's shooting will have found some healing and comfort.

~ I plant this delicate pink flower to symbolize the vulnerability that each and every one of us has...If we don't nurture and protect such delicateness...all will wilt and wither away~

I was thinking this morning..I have alot of difficult people in my life and some difficult situations I've been going through and trying to work out...I had a thought this morning...If we planted in our Gardens..a Flower for each difficult person in our lives and each difficult situation...and we watered it and ...nurtured it and Looked at it with Love...gave it good energy..perhaps we could change our relationships and our situations around us that are not so pleasing...Sometimes its all in the way we think and the way we see things and people around us...SO...this is our plant a flower thread...Please plant a flower here..for those things you would like to see change in your life..no matter what it is......and we all will help your Dream to grow..
