      Thank you Georgia. Actually the font is on a texture by Kim Klassen called 'Scripted Edges'.

    This picture speaks volumes on how amazing growth can be; not only as a flower but also as a human being. The colors give hope to the simplest thing we want in life.

      Thank you Kathryn. I'm glad I captured it when I did because later that same day all of those beautiful little buds were open.

    Good choice of texture!
    So much hope showing in these buds.
    But, the gardener in me wants to know...
    what kind of flower is this?
