| Lavender from the Rose Garden at Havenwood |
They say that scent triggers the most profound memory centers in our brains... That scent is the key to recalling moments in our lives.
I was out picking some lavender on Sunday morning as a reminder of our fading summer Rose garden. Next year it will return and with more roses too! But I am going to hang on to these pieces and treasure them up for the next six months until spring comes to save the garden - and me - again.
I hope that you too are out enjoying the beautiful autumn weather! Smelling some lovely scent to carry you through the winter.

I don't have much lavender growing yet, but I did plant a little cutting garden of tall zinnias in the summer and am enjoying may bright and colorful bouquets right now! :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice! Any flowers are to be treasure at this time of year!!

ReplyDeleteI do agree, Donna! What a gift.
DeleteThanks for your visit! I have nearly fallen off the blogging bandwagon, but I miss it too much to let it go yet!
