    Lovely impatiens; looks so pretty up close.

    Interesting that you referred to the Lunar New Year (as opposed to Chinese New Year or some other), as I was just learning with my husband about the history of the symbol of the moon in Judaism. The beginning of using the moon as a symbol of a new month in the Jewish calendar would be in the spring, 15 days before Passover.

    Hi Arija!

    Hi Tabib! Thank you!

    Hi Trotter! Thanks!

    Hi Tracy: I’ll stop by soon!

    Hi Leora: Thanks for sharing about the symbolism in Judaism.

    Hi Darla: Yes, impatiens. ;-)

    Hi Lily: Yes, I believe good fortune. And I could sure use that right about now. ;-)

    Have a great Monday, all!

    Such a beautiful impatiens, I think. Just scrumptious. And the shadows on the walk below and red door above (no hydrant, please) make this blog area just an A+ section. Yummy photos. Hope things settle down for you soon!
