It was on a recent walk in the Grampians that we spotted these beautiful native orchids in flower. So delicate and so delightful. Sometimes it really does pay to slow down.

We All have Our Time to Bloom
Just like this blossom, we all have our time to bloom. It just has to be the right season.

Spring Delight
Blue sky, bright warm sunshine, and buzzing bees. The start of spring puts such a spring in our steps — at least this time of year in the southern hemisphere.

Time to Bloom
Just like flowers in the garden, we can never be sure when we, or those around us, are going to bloom.
This flower, a grevillea, which for quite some time I thought was an evergreen, suddenly burst into flower seven years after I first noticed it!
Just shows that sometimes in life it’s worth the wait.
One of two places I love: the garden and the library.
Two things I love: stories and flowers.

Lovely Autumn Light and Leaves
A little light sparkling through the autumn leaves of pinkish reds and yellowy-orange hues. A little natural inspiration in the middle of the day.

Taking a Break in the Garden
Taking a five-minute break out in the garden can be so refreshing — especially for those of us who work for home.
Michele comments, ‘The wattle birds are not the only species who enjoy being around grevilleas. So do I. This one pictured is often in bloom, colourful, and provides food and shelter for native birds.’
Michele Gierck is a writer, who loves nature. She says the garden has become a special place full of daily delights.
‘It’s a great place for calmness and quiet.’

Striking Pink Petals in Autumn Sun
Striking pink petals, with a patch of redish-pink dots, lit up in autumn sunshine.
(This azalea is right near my front door, and I must have walked by tons of times without even noticing it.)
Oh for a little sunshine, and the slowness and spaciousness in which to enjoy it.
