This Mimosa Tree blossom is not only an attraction to Butterflies and Hummingbirds, but it is so delicate and so colorful and it’s like a Mini – fireworks display – nothing short of an explosion of color! this tree came as a volunteer and was not even noticed for a few years…......my friend Bonnie Barry wrote a story once about a volunteer Mimosa Tree and has graciously consented to my using it along with this image….Bonnie, Thank you!!! You can check her works by just typing in Miracles in the search field. / / ____ Joyce, I thought you might like this little story I wrote years ago about a mimosa I loved. All the best, Bonnie Mimosa While I was watering the wilted caladiums near my angel statue, I looked up and noticed the mimosa in all its glory. Here I was working diligently to make the caladiums grow, yet there it stood, radiant without human effort. How many other plants had I set in this same spot through the years? The angel’s trumpet . . . impatiens . . . . those unusual little two-tone flowers whose names I can’t remember. All of them curled up and died. The soil was awful here; roots were knotted through the area; the trees sapped all the moisture. I’d wasted many a dollar on this spot, yet there was the mimosa looking down on me in gentle amusement. I had not planted the mimosa. I had never tilled the soil for it. I had not even watered it through the three-year drought. Yet three years ago it had been little more than a naked stick poking from the ground. The only reason it stayed put was that it was too close to the hurricane fence for Tommy to lop it as he mowed. The mimosa was a gift, a pure gift from God. I couldn’t claim any part in its flourishing. Either God’s wind had blown its seed to this corner or God’s birds had unwittingly deposited it. Only the miracle of nature could have made it grow like this without human care or cultivation. Yet now it produced all the color and vibrancy, all the grace and beauty that I had tried to achieve through the years with no success at all. / How like my life, I thought. Sometimes all my strained efforts are fruitless, yet in the midst of the sterility, God drops a single word, a single thought, and everything is suddenly alive and beautiful. Apart from Him, I can do nothing, yet I work like a Trojan to do it anyway. Maybe the gifts are rewards for my efforts, and maybe they are just freely given out of pure love. Who knows? Whatever the reason, the Source is undeniable. ___ “Every good gift and every perfect endowment comes from the Father of Lights,” (James 1:17) the mimosa whispers to me in gentle and amused remembrance. / __ / All The Materials Contained May Not Be Reproduced, Copied, Edited, Published, Transmitted Or Uploaded In Any Way Without My Permission.

Gulf Fritillary Butterfly, Agraulis Vanillae is feeding from a blooming flower. / The Gulf Fritillary, Agraulis vanillae, a striking, bright orange butterfly of the family Nymphalidae, subfamily Heliconiinae. These were formerly classified in a separate family, the Heliconiidae or longwing butterflies, and like other longwings this species does have long, rather narrow wings in comparison with other butterflies. It is not closely related to the true fritillaries. It is a medium to large butterfly, with a wingspan of from 6 to 9.5 cm. Its underwings are buff, with large silvery spots. It takes its name from the fact that migrating flights of the butterflies are sometimes seen over the Gulf of Mexico.

These flowers are a peony. I just had to paint them because of their colour. They are known in Japan to symbolize handfuls of cash. I thought that may be an auspicious thing to hang on one’s wall. The original oil on canvas is for sale on my website www.carrysmith.com. It measures 140cm x 107cm and is double framed with a cream slip on the inside and a warm silver guilded frame on the outside.
