Quotes About Blossoms

The moon garden of the mansion was famous, having been designed with night-blooming flowers lining the pathways and hillocks of the landscape. They stepped through open doors, went down the wide stone steps, and were greeted by the heady perfume of late-blooming autumn flowers. The pale blossoms were lit from below, setting a mood of mystery. A fountain of natural stone rose up out of a pond surrounded by terra-cotta sculptures.

Time for lunch. Take me somewhere good. Somewhere Italian. She chose Vine, one of the cafes on the main plaza, and ordered a burrata and squash blossom pizza.

~ Beverley Nichols
