Earth’s soil births an amazing range of plants whose blooms enhance environments and lives with colors, shapes, and fragrance. Just a glance at flowers makes us smile on Sunday drives. Two special beauties I have long enjoyed, tulips and honeysuckle, bloom in spring. The climbing honeysuckle fills a void and lightly scents the air each place it clings. The tulips compensate for being free of scent. Their unique shape and hardy blooms of varied colors, a delight to see, embellish many gardens, yards, and rooms.
