This is the time of year the Grandmother’s flowers are in full bloom.
Seeing Grandmother’s flowers blooming and adding a beautiful splash of color to the yard always makes me smile. They Stay blooming all summer and never need any special attention.
These lovely little dainty flowers are called Mallow but I always refer to them as Grandmother’s Flowers because I brought back one of the plants from her old homestead for my garden. My grandmother has been gone many years but I still have wonderful memories of her and the flowers keep her memory fresh in my mind.
The Hummingbird Moth was back for another visit to Grandmother’s Flowers.
The Hummingbird Moth is a delight to see with a body that looks like a huge bee and wings that constantly flutter like a hummingbird. The wings are clear except for edging around the outside of them.
The Hummingbird Moth is a rare sight and I was fortunate to see it on two different occasions. The clear wings beat so fast it is almost impossible to see them.
Nature is amazing to watch with all the different little creatures visiting the flowers.
