The flowers in the first photo seem to be relishing the shade!
SHADOW DANCE
Shadows left and shadows right;
Shadows dancing through the night;
Shadows crouching on the wall;
Shadows spring and shadows fall
On the unsuspecting guest
Who thought shadows offered rest!

Shadows here and here
The nursery is indeed unique, with nary a bag of mulch and manure in sight - no doubt they sell these, too. But the view as we enter in more of nature, the plantings and tree shadows start to give us design ideas from the moment we enter.
Lovely capture of a place that gives us ideas of stylish natural details to enhance our homesteads. Have a nice week!
I finally visited Gappa, the blog of your artist-friend, and have added her to my blogroll. Thanks for posting her website address, Sylvia. I find India very intriguing.
What lovely, cool, shady places. And I really enjoyed your quotes on happiness. Your post spoke to me today.
A lovely collection of shadow shots - the last one is my favourite. Hope you have a good weekend.
I love that last quote. and your shadows are all plant-related! fantastic. I hope you have a fun weekend Sylvia.
love that big tree shot. and all good advice, once again!
I will try to remember Epictetus' quote. It's very appropriate for me. Have a great weekend, Sylvia.
The broad tree of green is my favorite... how many have enjoyed her shade over many, many years?
Wishing you a wonderful weekend, mon amie! (amie, for females)

That does look like a beautiful place to browse. And like Ralph said, with nary a bag of mulch in sight.
The full tree is lovely. It must be so old!
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great weekend as well ;-)
Good midsummer shadows, Sylvia! I like the deep shade on a hot day!
As for sleeping with a camera: do you think then we could photograph our dreams? ;-D
Love the tree shot ... just discovered you on Weekend Reflections and look forward to following you!
I wish that I had that big shade tree!
Lovely shady shadows, and that tree in the second shot is gorgeous!
This does look like an inviting nursery. All the shadows are wonderful. I like all the words of wisdom about happiness too. Happy SSS!!
Wonderful shadow shots, Sylvia! You have such a good eye. I love it that you've got sunshine up there at last! Enjoy!
All great quotes, Sylvia. It just so happens we have a family member who is struggling to find happiness. If only she understood that happiness depends on ourselves and not on what other people will do for her. Hmmm.
Love your shadows this week. It means the sun was out! :)
You are certainly the queen of quotations and shadow shots, Sylvia. I love the second photo.

OMG Sylvia, that tree, the second photo, it's GORGEOUS!
Ahhhhh, summertime, to park under a big ol' shade tree...is this paradise, methinks it must be so!!!

I love that huge tree shot, too! What kind is it? All your quotes re happiness are spot on! I'm a firm believer that you are responsible for generating your own happiness!
I love nurseries! Plant lust!
All good words to live by.
Pretty photos and shadows.
A lovely set of shots, Sylvia, and the Bertrand Russell quote just blew me away...so simple and so complex all at the same time!
And your new header is spectacular as always...:)
I absolutely love that huge tree! Made my day.
I think I could spend hours at this nursery, even if there weren't any interesting shadows like the ones you captured.
Wow! That's a big tree with lots of shadows/shade under it!
