Pansies are my favourite flower...these happy little fellows where smiling at me from my garden when i left for work today..
who could not love these little guys with their perky little faces..
did you know that in Denmark, Germany and Scotland pansies are sometimes called...
Stepmothers...the larger lower petal represents the mother...
the middle petals her two daughters...
and the two smaller petals at the top....the stepdaughters
these pretty little blue fellows were waiting for me as well.... i am finding my passion for all things blue is spilling out of my house and into my garden..
