Lots 'n' Lots o' Pots o' Flowers

As a preliminary post of several dedicated to flowers, I share some images I've taken over the past few days of spring bursting forth.  While I mostly photograph what's naturally growing from the earth, I can truly appreciate those who can bring blooms to us through their work and from a controlled environment, making it easier for others to enjoy the beauty of blossoms brought onto their own property where they otherwise might not have any.
