    Baby’s Breath

    Gypsophila, also known as Soapwort, Soap Root, Chalk Plant, Gyp, or Baby’s Breath, can be an annual (Gypsophila elegans) or a perennial (G. paniculata). The Bristol Fairy (Gypsophila paniculata) is commonly used for decorative purposes. Its name is said to have come into being due to its use for baby shower gifts and for gifts to new mothers. What could be more perfect for baby than flowers that symbolize everlasting love, innocence, and purity? Which, is also why it is used in wedding bouquets.

    She Holds Many Messages

    If you are looking for a specific color to deliver a symbolic message, you could stick with a rose of one shade. However, if you want a rose that can send a lot of messages – this could cover quite a few – as far as shades of pink and crimson go.

    From the light side of pink, we can see happiness, gentleness, admiration, innocence, dignity, grace, femininity, refinement, and joy. Moving into deeper shades, we see gratitude, congratulations, appreciation, and recognition. Overall, it can give a sense of elegance and sweetness. Shades of pink can be romantic or platonic.

    As for crimson, these ruby edges speak strongly about passion, beauty, desire, true love, “I love you”, commitment, and romance. They can also speak for anniversaries, accomplishments, and graduations. It’s really about the context.

    🌹

    There is an additional element to this Rose, however, that also speaks of enchantment, mystery, wonder and splendor. It is love at first sight. It is that secret crush towards one who has, in the blink of an eye, captured your heart and soul. Its shade is called, Lavender.

    What message do you want to send today? And, to whom?

    Callicarpa means beautiful fruit. The bush is not much to look at until these magenta beauties appear in early fall. The berries have been used for jelly and wine and are another favorite for wildlife.

    Spurred Butterfly Pea

    Large Spurred Butterfly Pea Bloom
    Centrosema virginianum

    Centrosema virginianum, Spurred Butterfly Pea, Butterfly pea, Wild blue vine, Blue bell, or Wild pea is an herbaceous perennial. It is often confused with Clitoria mariana which is also called Butterfly pea. The difference is in the spur. With virginianum, you don’t see the long corolla tube like you see on the mariana.

    Discoveries

    Large yellow mushroom

    The forest floor was one discovery after another! We met so many mushrooms and then their sister and brother.

    From large to small – they were short and they were tall. I hope we meet many more this fall.
