A Hollyhock in October?
This afternoon I wanted to give my gardener some instructions, so I went into the yard to show him which shrubs I wanted him to trim. As I was pointing out a juniper, I saw this little hollyhock hiding behind the hyssop. I had never even suspected it was there. It's a flower God planted. I have read that they grow like weeds, but I don't mind. I welcome their cheerful little faces when they show themselves. I wish all "weeds" were as beautiful.

Now it's time for tea.
What a lovely surprise to find a hidden hollyhock. There is something about the shape and structure of any flower that resembles a hibiscus that is very appealing. Maybe they make me feel happy because they bring back fond memories of vacations in tropical places!
ReplyDeleteI agree. This one looked as though it was hiding behind the leaf. I had to pull the leaf away to take the photo.
