Clover Tangle
We are back outside in the summer again as I feel sufficiently recovered from my funk to again appreciate these natural beauties. The trouble with being anything more than about 1 or 2 feet in height is that we are so far from the ground. That’s a good thing in many ways, but it can also make it harder for us to really see low growing flowers and plants (and even the insects that populate them). As they are so far beneath us (physically, of course) we have to really get down on our hands and knees to admire all the little intricacies in their world. The leaves and fine tendrils behind these flowers make such a beautiful backdrop for the clover blooms that we know are filled with a delicious nectar that we have all tasted since childhood (when we were about 2 feet from the ground). If I shut my eyes I can almost taste the delicate sweetness. I hope you might have at least a little sweetness in your day, somehow, everyone. Flower a Day #517 View all posts on the Home page.

February 2022 Gallery :
A gallery of flowers shared on a daily basis to cheer myself and hopefully you, the viewer too, during the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic period. Posts from February 2022.
I see no tangle, rather a get-together of happy, healthy little clover blooms eagerly waiting to be joined by their bee friends…when I hope, fingers-crossed, they will proceed to make the honey I so enjoy. When not making honey, they enhance our meadows, pastures and lawns with their subtle aroma and that exquisite shade of purple. Clover, beloved by all! Thank you, Ellie, for getting down low to feature this unassuming little plant.
They are not the only ones waiting for the busy bees to come along, as we are waiting for the spring days that will bring them all out. Thanks again for the comment, Janet.
Thanks so very much and helping us to see the up close and personal view without having to get down on her hands and knees. I never realized the pattern that were on the leaves before.. and I do remember the Sweet taste of the Clover. Hope you are having a good day. Hugs to you and Steve.
You are most welcome, Linda. Perhaps the pattern on the leaves is distinctive on specific kinds of clovers? We’ll have to look next season. Won’t be long. I hope you’ve enjoyed our lovely day. And thank you.
