Flower Hill Farm Retreat Spring Landscapes
The Spring landscape here at Flower Hill Farm Retreat is stunning and stimulating. The species of flowers, birds, and butterflies are plentiful. Identifying birds by their songs and markings is a favorite pastime. While strolling around the gardens and fields, colors in countless patterns can challenge a butterfly enthusiast too. When the hillside landscape wakes up from the long winter, it is exhilarating and intoxicating and contagious. The vitality enters the imagination. Spring’s explosion of colors and fragrances are potent elixirs for winter weary spirits. Retuning fauna celebrate in song and molt into vivid hues to woo their mates and raise their young. The stirring of life fills the open windows, flowing into rooms and minds that fly out into the realm of magic within the gardens. The garden is a sanctuary where we gently and quietly step and listen and look. The eye is often carried out into the wider landscape and into the clouds. Spring is unbelievably beautiful and healing. If the temperature is hot, it can pass too quickly. A cool spring is what we long for. Spring is to be savored. At night, one can listen and hear tiny shoots stirring beneath leaf litter as they push up through the earth. Tendrils reaching up towards their potential. Spring offers hope.
