Flowers on Mosaic Monday

Powder Puffs are beautiful

Plants give us oxygen so we can breathe and Every thing either eats plants or eats something that eats plants...
  • provide us with food (vegetables, fruit and cereal crops - wheat, flour, rice etc)
  • shelter
  • fuel (oil, gas, wood are all plant derivatives)
  • building materials
  • clothing (cotton etc.)
  • And plenty of other things... taken from    Bruce Pedersen


Plants give us much beauty and joy... MadSnapper

Gorgeous Sandra and that dark background really makes them pop. Yes, I would eat gruel too if that is all there was.

The powder puff! I have a whole folder of yours, because I am going to make a collage of them and hang them somewhere. Love the shiny side shot of the hibiscus! Of course we would all die without plants. Also love the cool shot of the leaves in your first picture.

The world would be a dull place without plants and flowers.

I don't often stop to think about all the things we get from plants but I never fail to notice how pretty they are
