What differentiates a bulb from a perennial plant is that the nourishment for the flower is stored within the bulb itself.…There is something miraculous about the way that a little grenade of dried up tissue can explode into a complete flower.

I was thinking the same thing, especially since it got down to 49 degrees last night! But the colors in the fields have said fall for weeks now. sigh,
It’s a gorgeous SUMMER day here — 64°F with cool, clear breezes. With nearly a month of summer left–and though I love the fall–this is a PERFECT summer day to me, and I wish they were all like this. 🙂 Much better than the heat and humidity.
