These are beautiful photos. I once had wonderful plantings of nasturtiums, but infestations of aphids wiped them out in spite of imported ladybugs. (isn't aphis the plural of aphid? Blogger doesn't think so). When my children were small and wanted snacks I would butter a slice of bread and they would wrap it around nasturtium leaves.
I have to confess - I looked at each photo in turn and wondered - is that the nasturtium? I always think that I'm best in a supervisory capacity in the garden. ;)
A beautiful post! And so appropriate for this Earth Day. Nasturtiums are a flower I've never grown before, and last summer when I saw them everywhere, I thought why haven't I ever planted them?? There will be nasturtiums in my garden this summer!
I do so appreciate and enjoy your comments! Always wonderful to get feedback! The interaction with other bloggers has been one of the most rewarding things about blogging!
What lovely pictures, the nasturtiums are so vivid.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos of some beautiful trees...very colorful flowers...
ReplyDeleteLook at the rich colour that is us. We can no longer contain and isolate the beauty that is within. We burst forward with Joy.
ReplyDeleteI celebrate the N by saying Nice. Skye
ReplyDeleteThose are gorgeous blooms, and a great choice of N's.
ReplyDeleteLovely to see those "N" photos. Alway great to take a long look at Nature.
ReplyDeleteSpectacular blossoms!
ReplyDeleteI like nasturtiums. They're a pretty orange and you can put them in your salad.
ReplyDeleteI would think that Natural Moments' bunny would certainly burst with joy if he had some yummy nasturtiums to munch on! :-)
Beautiful photos, Sylvia. As always.
Those flowers and blossoms are GORGEOUS!!

ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful Sylvia....
ReplyDeleteThese are so wonderful, so soothing. I love the colors.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos. I'm partial to nature and nasturtiums. They used to grow for me, but the last few years they've been scrawny and pale.
