There are plenty of places to catch the floral carpeting that is the super bloom (even spots you may not have realized). That is, at least, until the flowers die, and according to our sources it will all be over "soon." Beauty doesn't last forever, not even if you Instagram it.

They're the same exact amount of soothing as any Enya video.
