Flowers, Plants, & Happy Such Things

**G42** · 03-21-2020, 12:20 PM

Hey folks... a thread for flowers, plants, landscapes, poetry, and other happy such things to lift our spirits.
There's already a great Forum thread for pets and another for photos of bags, so this will be a catchall for some other stuff... especially for our friends who may be hunkered down where it's still winter (not that winter isn't beautiful, but sometimes you need some colours).

We've got some early blooming azaleas in the Heather Gardens of Fort Tryon Park. They're luminescent when the sun is shining.

I live in what I call "rural" Manhattan. Lots of trees and grass; less people, Starbucks and Duane Reade stores than the rest of the island has.

I took this on Valentine’s Day. No idea how they do this, if anyone knows please share!

Wasn't sure whether to post this under pets or happy things. After work I took a bag of peanuts to the park to share with my furry and feathered friends. Obviously I didn't bring enough.
