Naturalised bluebells and white, three-cornered leeks flowering in a churchyard on the Fowey estuary, Cornwall, England I came across this old graveyard with naturalised wild flowers while walking a path alongside the Fowey Estuary in Cornwall. It was nice to see nature taking over the old cemetry. If there are any ghosts here I guess they are very happy! The photos in this album ‘The English Countryside in Flower’ aim to show the diversity of the flowering environments in the English landscape and, where conditions are favourable, the flora that thrive in them. © 2014 ukgardenphotos
At Woodlands Cemetery in Philadelphia, green-thumbed volunteers participate in a unique program.
This beautiful memorial cross is the perfect way to remember your loved one. Handcrafted with solid wood, each cross is engraved with your personalized messages. The cross is available in solid walnut, mahogany, aromatic cedar or stained pine. Choose a flame-less candle or a ceramic or glass vase to enhance the beauty of this cross. You may also select the option add a photo, which we print on a sandstone disc. All crosses have a protective coat of Thompson's Waterseal. *Please let us know if you intend to stain the cross yourself and don't want sealant applied. The bottom of the cross comes pre-drilled and ready for you to insert a metal rebar stake, which is included. Cross measures 22" tall and 14.5" wide. Wood is 0.75" thick. Flameless candle included is 1.75" tall and 1.25" wide. Do NOT use real candles as wooden cross is flammable. Ceramic vase is 5" tall. Glass vase is 4" tall. Make sure to let us know what text you would like engraved in each location (see photo for location information). Take note that the space in the center of the cross is intentionally designed with a blank area, so that the candle or flowers in the vase will not cover up the engraving. If you do want part of your engraving in the center, please make special note of that request when you place your order. *Please send the photo you would like to have printed as an attachment in a message to us - you cannot add a photo during checkout.* Pine stain color options: Light Stain Medium Stain Dark Stain Classic Grey Stain Natural - no stain, unfinished (or DIY) Pine wood has the possibility of knots. Cedar will almost certainly have knots; it features red, pink and white wood tones with a very aromatic smell. Please note that we use real wood - as all trees are different, there will be some color differences, variations in wood grain, and knots, making each one perfectly unique.

Graveyard is a realistic take on a cemetery scent, with notes of mourning dew, kept grass, fresh turned dirt and flower bouquets. You can distinctly pick out each scent mentioned above. You get the fresh cut green, grassy notes, softened by the dewy, wet floral notes, and deepened by the rich earth and dirt. We even added a touch of pebbled stone in there to get a subtle hint of headstones. This smells just like a stroll through the cemetery at dawn, where ground is still wet where the dew hasn't yet lifted. This is a gender neutral scent that anyone can enjoy. This is a Ghoulish Goods signature blend with notes of: Top- air, ozone, moss, rosewood, lemongrass, Cucumber, marine Middle- rose, green grass lily, cinnamon bark, cyclamen, jasmine, grass, green leaves, earth Bottom- musk, cedar, patchouli, sandalwood, oakmoss, sage, sea moss Product Features: -10ml amber glass apothecary blot bottle with black lid (optimal for preserving the integrity of the fragrance) -CLEAN fragrance oils (no carcinogens, reproductive toxins, or harmful chemicals)-contains coconut oil For best results: -shake or tip bottle upside-down a few times to make sure oils are well combined before application -apply to pulse points -it's always best to perform a patch test on a small portion of skin to ensure there are not adverse reactions before regular use

A visit to Rialto Beach‘s famous tree graveyard leaves most people awe struck by the power and majesty of the massive tree skeletons that have washed up on the rocky beach. A graveyard, yes – but also a major earth powerpoint of living energy. This tree lined beach on the Pacific Coast is a gathering ground […]
It was a graveyard smash.The groundskeeper called the cops, you had to jump a fence, it was a whole thing. Now your favorite cloak is torn, there's probably more dirt on you than in your jar, and you're probably haunted by a colonial ghost. Just witchy things. So raise the dead and call forth the spirit with this dark number. The ancestors won't mind a substitution. Dead sea clay and activated charcoal are entombed in pumpkin seed oil for the season that smells of freshly turned earth and funerary flowers. So real you can see a solemnly dressed veiled woman sobbing on a hill in the distance. Run. Fragrance Notes: A Funerary Bouquet, Greenery, Freshly Dug Soil SizeNet Weight: ± 4.7 oz / 133g
Visiting gardens can be fun and so inspiring! There is nothing like seeing a plant in a garden setting to give you a true sense of how it grows, what shape it takes and how it mixes in with other plants. And you're bound to come home with a lots of ideas and projects in mind. How can you find gardens to visit in your area? Check online to see when your local horticultural society is having its annual garden tour (For those of you here in Canada, Garden Making Magazine has a list of garden tours and events organized by province). There are also public gardens and parks you can visit. Here in Ontario we are lucky to have an organization of over twenty privately owned gardens that are open to the public in Grey and Bruce Counties. Here is a small sampling of the gardens you can visit: Moorland Place Host: Barry More 102645 Grey Rd. 18, Owen Sound, Ontario Open daily for self-guided tours. Donation box at the entrance. Our first stop is an architectural curiosity. With a rambling series of structural additions, Moorland Place seems like an ancient estate home, but in reality, the house is about fifty years in age. The extensive grounds that surround the sprawling manor house have the mysterious feel of a forgotten garden. On the hillside below the house there is a long rows of regal lions, brooding griffins and a great abundance of little cherubs balancing pots of yellow pansies on their heads. In the perennial garden, the unkempt mix of long grass, weeds and flowers feels forlorn and deeply romantic. Within the confines of the high walls of cedar hedging, the air was fragrant with the perfume of peonies in bloom. Pink and purple lupins were everywhere. Here a mounds of gold-colored Spirea framed by sun-scorched hosta lead visitors in yet another direction. The garden "rooms" of Moorland Place unfold for the visitor as a series of surprise discoveries. You'll never be able to guess what's just around the corner. The garden feels wild, curious and very eerie. Would I recommend a visit? Absolutely! Earthbound Perennials and Gardens in Red Bay, Ontario (not far from Sauble Beach) 14 Hea Rd, Red Bay, South Bruce Peninsula Hosts: Brenda Sutherland, John Close and Judy Larkin Open: daily 9-5, May through Thanksgiving Website: Earthbound Gardens Group/Bus tours welcome Nursery, café & gift shop Earthbound Gardens is a plant nursery and a display garden. Garden expert, Brenda Sutherland couldn't have been more friendly or welcoming. We wandered around the garden and then did a little plant shopping. The fragrance of these old fashioned shrub roses was amazing! One great reason to visit places like this are the unique and unusual plants you'll find. The nursery offers a wide array of lilies, daylilies and native plants. This purple geranium is a perfect example. It's an old variety called 'Aunty Marge' that is no longer sold commercially. I liked it for its strong upright flower stems and huge purple blooms. Check out Earthbound Gardens website to plan your visit and for more information on their free Sunday series of concerts and workshops. Carpe Diem Gardens 496487 Grey Rd 2, Clarksburg Host: Jane Dykstra Open: Monday-Saturday by chance or appointment. Closed on Sunday. Admission: $3 plants for sale If you stand next to the sign at the entrance to this next garden, you'll have a panoramic view of the rolling countryside in one direction and an amazing garden in the other. Owner/gardener Jane Dykstra came out to our car, umbrella in hand, to greet us. Despite the rain, she was more than happy to show us her garden. The rose garden toward the front of the house. The perennial garden at the side of the house. A pergola and shady seating area just off the back deck. Bright red annual poppies with the garage in the distance. A row of bouquets on a rustic bench. This is a lovely garden that deserves a closer look, so I will come back to revisit Jane's garden in another post. Keppel Croft Gardens 504156 Grey Rd. 1, Big Bay, Wiarton, Georgian Bluffs, Ontario Hosts: Bill and Dawn Loney Open: 10 am-5pm Wednesday-Sunday, Closed Monday and Tuesday (except for holiday Mondays) Website: Keppel Croft Gardens Admission: $3 (Bus tours welcome) Plants for sale This was another incredible garden. We happen to arrive along when the peonies were all in flower. Visitors sitting and enjoying the view. Love these round stepping stones! One of a number of miniature gardens. Again this garden merits a closer look, so I will return to it in another post. For more information about this garden visit their website: Keppel Croft Gardens. To plan your trip to visit the gardens of Grey/Bruce Counties, visit their website or look for this map and brochure at your local tourist information.
I had been very busy inside today and by 5:30 I still hadn't decided where to take my photo walk -- especially since I had a meeting at 7. I finally had no choice but to go to the meeting area a few minutes early, drop my husband at the meeting place, and take a walk, knowing the meeting would probably start late, as usual. So that's what I did. The meeting was in a home on Oxen Street in Paso Robles. As I was coming down the hill to the home, this was the view at the top of the hill before I went down. (Above) I had walked in this residential neighborhood before, but not very far. I parked down the road past the house where the meeting way and then started to walk up. I saw some children coming toward the sidewalk from what appeared to be a path to the right. When I asked, they said it was indeed a walking trail. So, of course, I decided to explore it for a few minutes. As I started down the trail, the first thing I noticed were the wild flowers in bloom. There was clover, and a lot of yellow flowers I can't name. But the most beautiful flowers were the lupine. I look forward to having them bloom every year. As I continued down the path I saw a bridge ahead, so I continued on. It turned out that it was over a creek that actually had water in it. That's a rare site during this drought. Naturally, I crossed the bridge to see the creek. There was a tall oak on the other side of it that reflected into the water. I was torn as to whether to get the reflection or the height of the tree. I chose the reflection. Because I was trying to capture the reflection of the tree in the creek, the camera was too low to capture the sky, which was beginning to display the setting sun. The path back to the car led me through the wild flowers again and I kept pausing to take pictures of the sky. I shot it through the trees, with the tops of the trees, and with buildings in the background -- however I could only capture the pastel colors, since the sun itself was already down. I will leave you with this final photo of the sunset as I climbed back up the hill toward my car and the meeting. To me, a sunset is God's final blessing to mark the end of day. Have you had any surprises or special blessings today?

The night was warm and pleasant, midsummer, and peaceful. The smell of barbecues and the sounds of back garden parties floated on the soft breeze and gave a sense of security, even for those that used the old graveyard as a cut-through. It was a well looked-after little graveyard, with flowers and ornate statues. More like a park than a boneyard, really. So considering how nice it was, it really came as a shock when the first body was found there. Silk arrived to find out what had happened and to stop it from happening again, except she had no idea about what was going on. Magic? Mana? Wasnt that all just stories to entertain children? But when you could fly around at will, where could you start pointing the finger at what was real and what wasnt?
