Just an altered vintage graphic to wish you a Happy Saturday, wherever you are! The pansies are in full bloom here, despite the snow of a few weeks back. Some Johnny-Jump-Ups also weathered the storm and are blooming. Their festive faces are so nice to see.
Well, I learned something new already this morning! I had never heard of Johnny-Jump-Ups, so I checked out a photo. I thought they looked like pansies. When I researched further, I learned that they are sometimes called wild pansies. All I can say now is "Lucky You!" They are sweet and I'm glad you have some blooms. What a fun name for a flower.
GNG, the landscapers planted the pansies at work - it was all very coordinated and "professional." Then, some seedlings started up here and there - and the Johnny-Jump-Ups had invited themselves to the display! I love it - they are sprinkled all inbetween the solid blocks of colors, with their tiny multicolored faces peeking out like flower imps!
So so so good to see you back! I came back a few days back, but comments were turned off. Glad that I am able to say "Hi" to you now, and able to appreciate your work. Brilliant indeed :)
What a sweet Saturday morning cheery message. JJups are so precious and their sweet faces are adorable. I'll have to wait until spring but this image will do the trick for now. xoxo Oma Linda
