Joy: In the praise of wild flowers......

Spring flower posy from South California wilderness...

Is not that pretty? We often overlook the beauty of the seasonal, ephemeral nature beautifying weeds...Some quotes that have tried to understand and immortalize them.....
Pictures are mine....

To see a world in a grain of sand and heaven in a wild flower hold infinity in the palms of your hand and eternity in an hour ~ William Blake

A weed is a plant that has mastered every survival skill except for learning how to grow in rows. ~ Doug Larson




Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them.  ~ A. A. Milne

Little things seem nothing, but they give peace, like those meadow flowers which individually seem odorless but all together perfume the air.  ~ Georges Bernanos

What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have never been discovered.  ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Bindweed......

Desert mallow....

Scarlet pimpernel...

#Got to know that any herbaceous wildflowers (other than grass) are called forbs..........
