Devon’s demure and mindful

An exuberant floral celebration begins in Devon, as spring marches onwards.  Long-awaited sunshine melts away the frost and awakens the mind from its wintry slumber.  A walk through the garden to witness nature’s rebirth, sets the stage for our own moment to shine, to embrace transformation and harness the energy that lay quiet throughout the cold, hard months.    

With every bud and bloom, we see the resilience of Mother Earth who creates incomparable beauty from harsh conditions.  Embracing life, new green leaves unfurl and blushing petals greet the sun-dappled skies with a quiet, self-confidence.  Winter is necessary, to arrive with welcoming warmth and gratitude for spring.

Sharing the luxury of a slow morning, I present to you our newest Devon springtime visitors and hope you too relish in their demure mindfulness, delicate abundance and playful vitality, wherever you may be.
