Rhododendron


Rhododendron

Bought it half price at our local garden centre. It had quite a strange shape and no flowers at that time, so I had my doubts about it, but it's so pretty now.

Oh, thank you Camillia! Interesting choice of words, because I believe that's where all our pretty plants originally come from. Their creator deserves a lot of credit! He put so much love, beauty, wisdom and potential for variety into all of them, didn't he?

I couldn't agree more, Camillia. That's nice that you feel that way too:-) Giving credit where credit is due enhances my appreciation of plants. I feel each and every one is a gift, and we've been given the ability by the same creator to derive so much joy from them.

The spirit also gives us the intellect, ability and desire to create new varieties to enhance our enjoyment and appreciation of beauty, design and colour in creation. We get to 'join in' being the 'creator' ....now that's a gift!

You are so right, it's a gift to be so grateful for! We are very blessed to be endowed with such creativity and to feel the excitement that comes with it, be it creating a garden or breeding a plant. How enjoyable life is! The bible talks of a time in the when the whole earth will be like a beautiful garden, and people will look after it in harmony with the creator's guidance. That's something I very much look forward to.
