Columbine
Today is #MarketFriday initiated by @dswigle (Denise, that's me!!) Join me as we share our markets across the globe. I always look forward to seeing what you send me! It is amazing to see the different markets and cultures of our friends here on steemit. I have been pleasured by all of you, as you send in the most wonderful posts. Going places, doing things, buying merchandise. I have been surprised by many, not being familiar with the culture and I must say that it has been such an educational experience for me in so many ways and I hope for you also. This week, I went to the local nursery to buy flowers! It is that time of year again! My favorite time! Time to plant the garden!
Have you got your garden or pots started?
Different varieties of azeleas and fruit/ornamental trees
This is my local nursery. It goes on for almost forever, but, also had an area that is covered. It is privately owned and operated by an exceptionally nice family. They actually have three stores in the Washington, DC area and I chose the one closest to me today. Not because it is the closest, but, because they have the most variety, always! The people they employ there are very knowledgable and have taught me much useful information regarding my gardens, two of the employees teach me photography tricks and one girl gives me tips on life. (Some are pretty good too!) So, it is really a one-stop shop of sorts.
Azaleas
Please leave the link to your post on here so it can easily be found by others. It helps you and me to have them in one place. Where else can you take such a quick trip around the globe? Thank you so much for joining us!! ❤
Ivy Geranium
I love the geranium, especially the Ivy variety. Whereas the regular geraniums grow tall and upright, the Ivy Geranium hangs down and makes for a lovely sight. The regular geranium has soft leaves and the Ivy have a smaller and waxy/shiny leaf. I love planting them in window pots for the sills and let them grow long all summer long. They are a beautiful site.
STOP!! BRAIN TEASER AHEAD!!

Question: An Arab sheik is old and must will his fortune to one of his two sons. He makes a proposition. His two sons will ride their camels in a race, and whichever camel crosses the finish line LAST will win the fortune for its owner. During the race, the two brothers wander aimlessly for days, neither willing to cross the finish line. In desperation, they ask a wise man for advice. He tells them something; then the brothers leap onto the camels and charge toward the finish line. What did the wise man say?
source
Answer: The rules of the race were that the owner of the camel that crosses the finish line last wins the fortune. The wise man simply told them to switch camels.
Bleeding Hearts
One of my favorite spring flowers. I have several places where they are coming up, but, one got stomped to death last fall when work was being performed in the garden. Oh, my bleeding, bleeding heart! I bought this one to take its place.
Forget-Me-Nots
Can one conceive of any reason for a flower's beauty excepting our ability to enjoy their exquisite splendor? Oh, please! Forget-me-not!
Herbs of all kinds
If you were looking for herbs, they were 50% off. I had started a few from seed, but, I needed more chives and thyme. The rest of them, I had already started a while back. So now I was complete. Has anyone noticed how expensive herbs and spices have gotten??
I didn't buy any, but they had a major selection of statues and this little guy kept trying to make me put it in the cart. Oh, he begged, I swear it!! Maybe next time!
Pansies in a basket
They had so many statues, in all different kinds. I know!!!!! Who could resist this cute little dog? His eyes said take me home! I know I could have found the best spot for him, but, I have already gotten several pieces for the yard... I didn't want to be THAT yard that had the overabundant collection going on!
Dianthus aka Sweet William
Columbine
And just like that, my shopping is done. Until next time! I hope you had fun and maybe next time, we will get a few more plants to fill in the spaces. As always, I want to thank you for taking the time to visit #MarketFriday!! Have a most fabulous day!
Double Pleat Blackberry Columbine
I have actually never seen this, nor even heard of it! It is a perennial (I went to the perennial house, they keep their annual flowers and perennials separate. I was very excited to see these and when I collect the seeds at the end of the season, I will be sending my sisters both some. I love the unusual shape of them! I want to thank you for coming with me! I had a lot of fun and although I took pictures inside (Yes, there is more neat stuff inside! We will save that for another day, I have taken up a lot of your time already!!! Thank you!
I have been discovering new places, some right in my own area! This week, I discovered a new farmers market that will be a walkable distance! I find that super exciting! I love to share and be shared with! I am intrigued by different cultures. It is exciting and yes! I would love to see yours! Don't forget to take photos wherever you happen to be shopping - whether it be the grocery store, the local marketplace or even an art gallery, a kite festival or a cherry blossom festival! Wherever money is exchanged for a service or for merchandise. Be different if you wish! It does not have to be a traditional market! We will love it! I promise you! Don't forget to use the hashtag #MarketFriday and @dswigle.
Thank you for visiting my post 💖 Because of you, I come back to post, again and again, I am encouraged by you, for the time you take to visit, comment or even upvote. For all of these reasons, I am eternally grateful. Don't ever forget what a wonderful world we live in, people. Let's hold hands around the globe and make this earth really spin.

I always post this poem down at the bottom of my posts. It is one that has become so near and dear to my heart. I only post the most famous part of it, but, wanted to post it in its entirety today.
they set my aunts house on fire
i cried the way women on tv do
folding at the middle
like a five pound note.
i called the boy who use to love me
tried to ‘okay’ my voice
i said hello
he said warsan, what’s wrong, what’s happened?
i’ve been praying,
and these are what my prayers look like;
dear god
i come from two countries
one is thirsty
the other is on fire
both need water.
later that night
i held an atlas in my lap
ran my fingers across the whole world
and whispered,
"where does it hurt?"
it answered,
"everywhere"
"everywhere"
"everywhere"
warsan shire

Well Princess I made it with even a bit of time to spare!!! And, let me tell you that is no small feat. You already know I didnt have coffee till noon and breakfast at what 2pm OMG!!!!!! The stress and the workload is immense let me tell you, but I did manage to get a bit of a Market Friday post up! One of the hardest but most rewarding challenges!!
https://steemit.com/dtube/@old-guy-photos/6d2vdifw
Oh, wow!!!
Would you like a little cheese with that whine? :) You know I appreciate every #MarketFriday word that you write!
Thank you so much and have yourself an amazing night.
The dog planters are very nice with those pleading faces. Yes it is time for sprucing up the garden. Our local place has bags of 2 sq ft of mulch for 2 bucks. I cant pass that up! Going to load up this weekend. Looks like a fun and colorful time! Yes those bleeding hearts are one of my faves!
The dog Planters are really pretty nice oh, aren't they? Those little faces made me want to bring them home, but I knew that the pansies inside would not last that long. Once that he comes rolling in, the pansies are pretty dead. It is truly time to spruce up those Gardens. The local Lowe's had the bags of mulch 5 for $10 and it was the Netscape, which is the very black and Rich mulch. Our sale just ended last week, but I suspect that that is a popular sale in many places. I think they made the bag smaller then it used to be.
You definitely have your work cut out for you and yes! I'm not sure I would load up this weekend if I could load up today. Unless of course the sale starts tomorrow. If it's at Lowe's, I buy it online and then get in line to let them load it up. That avoids on those pesky lines.
Oh yes! It's been a fun week planting everything and those bleeding hearts or one of my favorites! Who can resist a bleeding heart?
I hope you have a most fabulous day!

You always come up with the most amazing beautiful flowers like that Double Pleat Blackberry Columbine neither have i ever seen one like that and that dog definitely the eyes have been done for the marketing purpose so cute and hard to resist a great show of flowers my friend and here is my link....
MarketFriday - Another Story !!
Oh, those Double Pleat Blackberry Columbine were to die for! I loved them at first glance and just had to take them home with me. Who would be able to resist? It was the first time I have been so enamored with a plant. Okay... maybe the fuschia and bleeding hearts make my heart skip a beat!
The dog was adorable, wasn't he??? I could see him sitting in my garden, but, I really dislike a garden full of statues. LOL
Well, you know. He was hard to resist, but, I ran fast!!! Thank you for always stopping in, dropping a link and participating with the most amazing blogs EVER!
I hope you are having a wonderful weekend!
!tip
And i can see why you were so enamored with that flower i would have done the same and i agree as cute as that dog looked it's not going to look good in a crowded circus so you made the right choice by running....lol :)
Had a great weekend but all to fast it's over for me but not for you have a great Sunday :)

What can serve better than a flower market? Wonderful. How many times will I marvel at your flowers? I'm a fan of your photos, especially those with flowers ...
I have to ask forgiveness that I have not yet been able to respond to your comments. We had very busy days and nights, we got back to Bucharest, home for a few days ...
I'm glad I was able to make this little blog for this Friday ... A More Special Friday
I am finally back to a flower market! Of course, it's one of my favorite markets however, I have to be cognizant of the fact that it is not everybody's favorite Market! I am so pleased to hear that you like the photos of the flowers. That makes my heart Happy.
No forgiveness is needed because life absolutely comes first. I am guilty being so far behind at this point that I may have to leave the comments that I did not get time for and move forward because it's causing me more Strife thinking about how I needed to answer them and not been able to. Especially when we are traveling are you working the days are busy and time is not our own. You have to keep in mind that this is supposed to be fun and by putting those stresses on ourselves, we make it not so fun. So, relax and enjoy and please do what you can and the rest will get done when there is time or will have to be moved forward from there.
I too, am so happy to see if you were able to make time for a Blog today. It is my lucky day! And thank you! I hope you have a most incredible Friday!

Oh wow...I would have stayed hours in this delightful place !! You always have terrific finds for the market day my dear, and being the Queen of Flowers, you couldn't miss to share some pleasurable place 😉
I wonder why it is called a nursery ...?
I love the deep blue of the forget me not, they remind me my beloved creatures that are mostly blue ^_^ ❤️
The dragons made me smile, they look like pets, probably dogs, well
they could be Luigi's pet for sure 😃
Oh, but look at what I found @barbara-orenya!
And now I must fix her! :)

No wonder you can capture so many gorgeous floral images @dswigle with having a great nursery so close to home. I had a hard time sorting out which flowers I liked the best, and decided that viewing beautiful flowers shouldn't cause stress......of any kind so I gave up trying to find a favourite.
In saying that.......I do think there is something very special about those Double Pleat Blackberry Columbine flowers, not having seen this species before.
A glorious post Denise........have a glorious weekend. I am about to put my market Friday blog together, so I will return a.s.a.p. (U & R )
Here is my post:
https://steemit.com/marketfriday/@trudeehunter/market-friday-inspired-aboriginal-art
Haha! I would like to say that I go there to get my pictures, but the truth is, I tend to stay away from there, otherwise I am tempted to buy some more for my garden! One can never have too many flowers or herbs can you?
Most of my pictures come from one part or other of my gardens, plus don't forget I have a weekend house that has endless gardens. It sits on a little land and has wildflowers and formal (well not really formal, but, organized gardens)So, I have a lot of different gardens to pull from. Right now, it is the beginning of the season and everything is tiny. :)
Are those Double Pleat Blackberry Columbine flowers so gorgeous??? This is the first time I had seen the. They are probably a hybrid of sorts, I need to look them up, but, I sure did buy a couple!
Thank you for dropping your link here and I appreciate all of your wonderful efforts in taking all the pictures and putting a post together. I truly appreciate it. I wish you a most awesome weekend!

Columbine is a flower that is new to me. I love when I learn a flowers name. Those Double Pleat Blackberry ones are so pretty. I love walking around nurseries. Alas, there are none that close to me. Sounds like yours is a one-stop shop. Advice even. I had to double take on the azalea. I thought they were cherry blossoms for a second.
Here is my contribution to #marketfriday. Back to the gallery for me:)
https://steemit.com/haiku/@prydefoltz/approach-a-monet-haiku-and-market-friday-with-dswigle
I think I am surprised that you don't have Comumbine up there! I never knew about them until I went to Colorado and Texas. A whole new variety of beauty came home with me. I also love learning the names of them and am happy when I can identify them for someone.
The Double Pleat Blackberry is even more beautiful in person if you can believe that! Those had to come home with me! I could have spent all day in there, but, that is too dangerous. I walk around and they all call me by name, begging me to take them home.
My place is a one-stop kind of shop. They love giving advice and helping in any way they can. They even came to my house once to check out my cherry tree as I was having some difficulty with it. I didn't buy it there AND I hadn't asked them to do that. The took it upon themselves to see if they could help, then restaked it as that was part of its problem. Talk about nice!!!!
I had to look at the TAG on the azaleas! I thought it was something else too. They were stunning! Thank yo for dropping the link here! It is appreciated so much and Yay!!! We are going to the gallery! I love it!
As always, lovely lady, have a great weekend!
!tip
They are some nice people, for sure. Although you sound like the perfect customer too. We may have the Columbine up here but I'd not have known their name. Not the blackberry one though. I would have remembered that one. How is your cherry tree doing now?
That was last season, but now? I would say it is doing wonderful!!
Her blooms were abundantly beautiful! Thank you for asking!
Lovely:)

Time does fly!!! You should see me on Thursday nights, to be a fly on the wall! I am editing pictures and pushing together my #MarketFriday post for the week. I feel so unorganized some days, but I always buckle down and put it together before Friday comes... this week I was ready ahead of time, how unusual! Of course, I usually post it Thursday night late to accommodate the people in the overseas time zones.
I look forward to you El Jardin de Marieta/part 2!!
As always, a wonderful weekend for you! And get out and enjoy life!!! ;)
#MarketFriday loves you!
!tip
Love, love love the columbine!!!! Such a neat perennial. I can't wait for it to bloom each spring...I have never seen the blackberry variety, wow! Definitely put that one in your cart. Those statues are darling, but you're right, how many can you have before it's too many, lol I bet you have an amazing yard @dswigle just based upon the pictures you share :) Happy planting my friend!
I love it too!! I await it eagerly every year and I can honestly say that I have never been disappointed! Such beautiful little flowers and every year, it seems like another one hits the street!
I did buy the blackberry one, wasn't it darling? So different too! I had never seen one before! And now, I have to wait another year to see more flowers come out! The yard is a work in progress, but, I don't want it to look like THAT yard, you know?
So, I am a happy camper, getting the gardens replanted and watching as the perennials come in. Mother Nature is awesome.
Thank you for stopping by! I loved the visit!

I LOVE to garden @dswigle and I was, indeed, at my garden center on Friday, but also on Thursday and possibly wednesday , this time of the year I can't go enough.
I'm doing over my long front border along the front of our house and it's mainly shaded, so it will get many more hydrangeas this year, but I'm putting in more evergreen structure with azaleas and the like. I also love ferns and hostas so that will be going there too. I've got some new variety I bought as bulbs starting in the windows when I did my seeds since February.
This looks like an amazing place to go garden shopping !
Oh, wow!!! You are really getting into the garden, aren't you? It sounds like a total redo and you have made it sound so wonderful.
I do love the hydrangeas and have five in the front/side part of the house. The one that does the best gets full sun and the others get more shade and seem to flower less. It may be the variety, or perhaps they like more sun? I am not sure.
I do love the intermingling of azaleas with the evergreens, it adds so much color and charm when they are in bloom. I bought four ferns last week because it is a buy it or miss it for the extra large ones. If you don't buy when they come in, you will not get but a smaller one for the rest of the season. Odd, right? They are hung from the porch and I really love how they look from the street.
Hosta have always been a nice way to fill in spots, but, I have finally come to really appreciate them on their own. Your garden sounds lovely. I hope you will be posting pictures of it!
Thank you for dropping by #MarketFriday and I hope you have an amazing weekend!

Garden of pleasure? Don't let me go there, it's way too dangerous for my pocket 😍 So many lovely flowers and garden decorations! Wonderful!
Here's my entry for this week Wooden Things for MarketFriday.
Oh, yes!!! It was totally a garden of pleasure, Erika! @erikah
It is so dangerous for me to go to a place like that. All reason goes out the window. The one I took photographs of are the ones I took home with me. Well, except the dragon, of course. I did see this cute little gnome and thought of @luigi-the-gnome and @barbara-orenya! It was actually a family of them and I had to run away before they jumped into my cart!
I try not to go there too often, but, those blackberry Columbine at the end really did me in! Weren't they so gorgeous?? Thank you for dropping your link here, it is so helpful for me ! I do appreciate all the effort you put into each and every post.
And as always, I hope you are having a most wonderful weekend!
!tip
I guess we have a lot in common 😄 I'm already afraid of the spring craft market which is going to be soon. My wishlist is already as long as my arm and God knows what I'm going to see there. Lots and lots of great stuff I don't have 😊
Thank you again for your support and generosity. Have a nice weekend, mine is rainy but I don't mind ⛈️🌂☔
You should be very afraid! LOL
Those places are very dangerous to go to. Such as the flower nurseries are also. Oh, my!!! I cannot escape from them fast enough. I just want to bring it all home. Well, that is totally impossible, but, Lord knows, I want to!
It is always a pleasure, you know that! And yes!!! Have a most wonderful weekend, Mine is really gorgeous out, but, there are times rain is nice too.

I'm looking forward to seeing your garden. My husband, Charlie, usually plants during the Memorial weekend but this year he is getting out ahead and trusting the hail doesn't pick on him. It is recommended not to plant until after June 8th around here.
I always plant just a little bit earlier than recommended... I get antsy to get it all going. I have been punished with my over-enthusiastic attitude before, but, usually, it all works out!
Thanks again for dropping by!
#MarketFriday loves you!

We are more than 5 weeks away from that June 8th cut off and my husband is all in and headed to the garden shop for the third time today. We live dangerously.
Hehehe! Oh, yes!!! I can see that! Three times is my record. I say he should go for that fourth time!!!! :)
I am sure you have the most beautiful yard. You tell him, he needs to be careful out there!!!

I'm putting Double Pleat Blackberry Columbine on my request list this year. Let's see if he can find them around here.
I will bet so!!! The first Columbine I ever saw was in Colorado Springs!!!! I know you will find them and if you can't, let me know and I will see if I can collect some seeds
I will bet so!!! The first Columbine I ever saw was in Colorado Springs!!!! I know you will find them and if you can't, let me know and I will see if I can collect some seeds to these when they die off.
I hope you can find them, they really are a delight to look at! And thanks for dropping in!
#MarketFriday loves you!

Nursery's are one of my favorite places to visit! The columbines are really pretty. I'm not very familiar with them. I was thinking of the unique smell of geraniums!
Here's a place i visited the other day at the marina shipyard. I don't have an easy time taking photo's inside businesses (especially if i'm not buying anything) :)

A man after my own heart! I could live at the nursery all day long! It is one of my favorite places to visit. I forget where you come from but columbines are very popular spring flower in a lot of the country. I especially liked the very last one that almost looks black, but I believe it's a BlackBerry. I had never seen one of those and I did not even realize that it was also a Columbine.
Doesn't thoughts of geraniums just spell spring to you? I can't imagine a spring without them and they're very unique smell. I selected both kinds this year oh, the upright and the Ivy variety. Usually I just get the ivy, but I got daring this year.
I see that you went to the Marine the shipyard! A lot of people don't have an easy time taking photos inside of a business and especially if they're not buying anything. Usually if a salesperson approaches me I asked them if they'd mind if I take some pictures for a blog that I'm writing. I have never been turned down yet. As a matter of fact, some will even give me a great tour so I can get good pictures.
Thank you for taking the time and effort to take pictures and write a post. The effort is appreciated and as always I hope you have a most wonderful day!

Thanks for the tip @dswigle truly appreciated
I want to thank you so much for your always kind and wonderful words. Don't you just love the flowers? The colors are always just short of being amazing and they are so low maintenance. There is so little that has to be done to keep them happy.
I have always loved the forget-me-nots and I have several different spots of them in my yard. I get to see them smiling all day long. :)
Haha! Yeah, it has a creepy/cool feel to it, doesn't it? I am pretty sure that is exactly why you liked it! Just remember there is a point of having so many of those that they become too much. You become that person with all the stuff in the yard. LOL
Thank you for taking the time and effort to take such awesome pictures and put a post together, week after week. It is always and forever appreciated.
#Market Friday loves you!

ohh yes I do indeed love the flowers and love this season where they really seem to shine after the dreary winter
SO nice you have a beautiful garden with the lovely flowers including the forget-me-nots,
Ohh not I am not one for too much in a garden, I think just the odd one really makes them stand out too many they get lost in the clutter
Its always a pleasure to do a post for Market Friday infact this morning between comments I am looking through my shots to see what I can use this week, I may actually surprise you and do a real market this week LOL
Oh, no!! If you do a real market, it will put me to shame! That is the first real market I have done in a while. :)
I like to get a little inventive when I do the #MarketFriday. However, I love traditional markets also. It is interesting to see how the different cultures shop.
Thanks again, my friend! Have a most fabulous day!
LOL well you know me you never know what you will get, time will tell when I go through my photos and do some editing this weekend ;)
So far the day is going good, you to have a fab day
The same for you and good luck at the photo shoot today! I know the shots will be amazing!
Thanks its tomorrow, at this time I am doing the shoot, now I need to clean my camera and lenses ;) so I am all set for it

I think the little dragon would definitely have jumped right in my cart! I love the geraniums and the bleeding hearts! I've never seen one of those in person, but I know you and Lena have both shared gorgeous pictures of them! Trying to crank out a post here in a few, so I may be back...😉
It's a bit of a stretch, but I made it! 🤣

Bleeding hearts very well may be a cooler flower or for cooler weather as it needs to winter in the ground. They are gorgeous and come in so many colors now!
I love when you visit! Whether you have a link or not! Mwah!
