I hope your weekend is going well its cooling down a bit here fall will soon be upon us and I do look forwd to the lovely fall colors, but know soon after will be the cold and dull days of winter which I am not looking forward to at all
So lets think colorful and bright with some shots from back in Spring this year when I visited Haskell Gardens here in New Bedford a nic elittle spot on a busy road here and seemingly not known about by many of the locals
Starting with this nice colorful blossoms

a little bit about the history of the place
Allen Clifton Haskell (1935-2004) I have seen on line desribed as “a nurseryman with an artist’s eye.” and it is said he symbolizes the best of New Bedford – grit, determination, ingenuity and an outward vision that once brought New Bedford whalers to every corner of the globe and later won international acclaim for Haskell as everyone from European royalty to local do-it-yourself gardeners made pilgrimages to his fabled Shawmut Avenue nursery described as “heaven on earth.”
Haskell created an 6-acre urban paradise – a touch of Old World restrained elegance with meandering cobblestone paths, ivy-covered stone buildings, strutting peacocks and rare plant specimens like the European hornbeam hedge rising over a stone wall and a 250-year old American dogwood – in a humble, working-class neighborhood on busy Shawmut Avenue
it is now managed by a not for profit group I believe called the trustees and is free to visit
next a Tulip, I remember my late Mother loved Tulips so they remain special for me when I see them

MY Dad always liked having daffodils in his garden, of which he was so proud of his gardens were always beautiful, I didnt inherit a green thumb from him though

Spring and autumn are the two seasons of the year that I like the most, soon you will be surrounded by yellow, red and ochre.
What beautiful spring shots dear friend @tattoodjay, I love tulips
Have a lovely Sunday
I can only imagine what the nursery looked like back in the day, and even now. It must be beautiful if filled with flowers like those in your pictures. Thanks for sharing @tattoodjay.
Hope recovery is going well for you. Best wishes.
Those flowers are all admirable, it's nice to see that there are people who put effort to build and protect a paradise like that, hoping to visit that place someday to admire it's beauty. I am also hoping that it will remain forever and preserve.
The look of your Sunday this spring is very pleasing to my good friend @tattoodjay and the result of the flower photo shoot you shared is beautiful, especially with tulips
Very beautiful flower...
