Bloom where you are planted! by danette

Bloom where you are planted!

These milkweed seeds will be blown by the wind and plant where they land. I find them all over and tend to leave them since they nicely attract butterlies.
That is beautiful!

@scooter Thanks so much. I had trouble getting the right shot because of the transparency and the sunlight (plus not being able to bend down!).

When I first saw this I thought, where in he world did you find milkweed seeds at this time of the year? Then it dawned on me that you live in Florida! Daaa.

Wonderful, pastel-y colors and a nice fluffy feel from Florida. Thanks for the warmish feel!

A butterfly brought me out into the yard, but the dog scared it away. The sunlight then attracted me to the delicate seeds waiting to be scattered. It was a challenge, for certain.

@kandernob Thanks so much for your fav, Karen!! I greatly appreciate it.

@skipt07 We have all kinds of milkweed in bloom! You don't?? :-)
