Life is the flower for which love is the honey.
- Victor Hugo
Every gardener knows that under the cloak of winter lies a miracle ...
a seed waiting to sprout, a bulb opening to the light, a bud straining to unfurl.
And the anticipation nurtures our dream.
- Barbara Winkler
flowers are the sweetest things God ever made, and forgot to put a soul into.
-Henry Beecher
The rose that lives its little hour
Is prized beyond the sculptured flower.
- Bryant
