Chrysanthemum is the National flower of Japan. They are so beautiful. Though they bloom around autumn, I don’t often see them. I was happy to see and capture a few. Each flower was so big and had so many petals.
Hi fellow hivers and members of the WednesdayWalk community. I hope your weekend is going great.
It’s getting cold. Though I enjoy being wrapped up in my blanket and feeling all cuddly and warm, I do enjoy getting out, going for a stroll and admiring the flowers. Though autumn isn’t necessarily my favorite season, I love the colors of the seasons and the beautiful leaves and flowers we get to observe at this time of year. This week, I went for some strolls around my community. I was excited to see chrysanthemums. Each was bigger than the palms of my hand. The first white one (pictured above) in particular was bigger than all the others. I was awed by the beauty of them all.
Streets of Gold
There’s such beauty in seeing gold leaves fall and get scattered along walkways. For the past few days, I’ve been deliberate at choosing to stroll where I can see these bright-colored leaves. They add joy to my walk. Like a kid, I sometimes stoop, pick some leaves up, lift them high and then let them fall like yellow or gold rain. Recently too, huzzy and I walked the “yellow carpet” and could see others enjoying their autumn stroll. Nature is beautiful.
What flowers do you see in your area at this time year?
What autumnal changes do you experience in your area?
