Description
Plant your own garden
And decorate your own soul,
Instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
~ Veronica A Shoffstall
Heather (Calluna vulgaris) Scotch Heather/Ling Heather, is an evergreen branching shrub. Heather flowers bloom in late summer. Wild species of Heather flowers are usually in purple or mauve shades. The flower's various cultivars come in colors ranging from white, through pink, a wide range of purples and reds. Different varieties of Heather flowers bloom from late July to November in the northern hemisphere. The flowers may turn brown but still remain on the plants over winter, and this can lead to interesting effects.

Jordan, this is such a rich capture and I so wish to see a scene like this to experience the "awe". I will travel to B.C. again and was wondering where I would find this "eden"?.......v/f.
