Clara L Balfour once asked, "Are not flowers the stars of the earth?" Indeed they are, is my response. Flowers bloom, ushering in seasons like constellations we can smell. They beautify and energize just about any space they enter and often captivate us with their delicate and striking varieties of colors, petals, and stems. Flowers say "I love you" in a mystical way our mouths and words cannot express.
