  The composition makes them appear to be hanging down or flowing. Beautiful composition Laura. I have now idea, but if they smell that good I want some of it. If you ever have a chance to smell wild cliff rose, take a deep breath; it will lift you off the ground.

  Checking out your gallery always leads to lovely discoveries like this, Laura.
The graceful arrangement of these dainty flowers is wonderful, and the dark surroundings really highlight their color. Excellent floral!

  Gee thank you everyone! If anyone is still attached to this thread please except my apology for not getting here sooner. BP doesn't alert me on some of my images when someone has made a comment!

Anyway I have read them all and this was FUN! Paul, you guessed the flower right.

They are alysium!!! They are very tiny and smell like honey and the bees love them! They are used as ground cover or in hanging baskets or boarders...

My spell checker is saying we are spelling them wrong however??? Maybe SPELL CHECK doesn't know much about gardening???

Thanks much all!

-Laura

(Mary, you are very kind! Thanks!)

  Okay, Little Kiki, YES. YOU MAY COMMENT. I see I have acquired yet ANOTHER NEW NAME. What shall they put on my head stone one day? It will have to be a stone WALL!!!

Thank you both for your descriptions of what you see here. You are both correct. The Sisters here at the Nevada branch DO try and be little lights in a dark world.

When we move to the ROCKIES to the NEW PROPERTY at WEDGE POND we wish to become shooting stars.

And the few of us that travel back and fourth to the Philly branch wish to be BELLS of LIBERTY while there!

Now you know the plans. Thank you AGAIN! -SSSister Lillie WW
