5 Easy to Care for Flowers

Mothers Day is this weekend!

And a favorite gift for me to give to the Moms on my list is flowers! Flowers are fun no matter what the occasion, but I love giving living plants that they can enjoy not only for the week but for the season and possibly even years to come.

5 Easy to Care for Flowers

1. Iris: iris are among the most elegant -- and easy to grow -- flowers of spring. They come in a large variety of colors and sizes.

2. Peony: You can enjoy the bright-colored lush fullness of the peony flower in your outdoor landscape. These are a personal favorite and will come back year after year.

3. Salvia: Salvia plants, commonly known as Sage, are long-blooming, deer resistant and easy to care for.

4. Snowball Bush: An amazingly 'SHOWY' addition to any landscape; the Viburnum Macrocephalum, more commonly known as the 'Chinese Snowball Bush', is beautiful and easy-to-grow. The flowers emerge a striking lime-green in late spring and gradually turn to snowy-white in mid-May; they retain their green color for several weeks before turning to cream and then to white.

5. Pansy: The garden pansy is a type of large-flowered hybrid plant cultivated as a garden flower. These are annuals and work well in hanging baskets or pots.

Each of these flowers is easy to care for, has beautiful blooms and make for great gifts.

As Mothers Day comes, be sure to show your love to the women who mean so much to us. With a call, hug, handmade card or flower.

Creating A Peaceful Home

1 Corinthians 14:33

For God is not a God of confusion but of peace.

There are moments in life when we feel chaos! Chaos in our minds, souls, families and homes.

I try to create a home of peace for my family. With 4 kids its often an illusion in my mind Im sure but there are certain things I do that help me to create a peaceful home for our family.

Natural Light

Nature is a direct reflection of peacefulness to me. I leave our windows open to let the natural light in giving that airy feeling.

Entrance

As soon as you walk in our front door you are welcomed by photos of our family. I think this helps to give our kids a sense of belonging. They know they are supposed to be here, are a part of our family and are loved.

Smells

Our sense of smell is one of the best senses we have. Its been documented that our sense of smell is one of the biggest triggers to memories. I like to have Essential Oils in our diffuser that are calming and peaceful or reflect the season. My favorite oils for the season can be found HERE.

Simplicity

I find my own mind is clearer and at peace when I have simplicity in what my eyes can see. Less clutter and toys. Things in their places. Baskets are often found in our home to help keep things in their places and create uniformity. {Looking for ways to use baskets? Check out this blog post.}

My wish for you is that you find your home is a place of comfort and peace. I recently have found areas in our home are a bit chaotic. Join me in the weeks to come as I share how Ive brought peace back to our home and created a balanced environment.

That time of Year

It's that beautiful time of year!!

Flower planting is happening. Peas are popping through the soil in my garden.

Lots of babies around our place....

Including these super cute chick's my kids adore!

And my yard is in bloom! I love this time of year when beauty surrounds us and you can feel the Temps getting warmer.

May your week be full of blessings!
