I found a patch of prettily blooming Japanese anemones …
… their lovely pink faces highlighted by the sun …
… while they bobbed and nodded in the breeze …
… some still tightly enfolded …
… their beauty for another day.
Happy Tuesday.
The hydrangeas are really coming out to bloom in all their gorgeous beauty!
A variegated red, white and pink one …
… and another one on the same plant, a variegated pink and white bloom.
Here they are next to each other …
… and here’s the gorgeous plant, bursting with summer vibrancy!
Happy hydrangea Friday.
This time of year is so beautiful that choosing some flowers for fleurday can be rather difficult, but nevertheless, and since today marks the solstice, some choices had to be made. So in the solstice spirit, here’s today’s bouquet!
A very fresh daisy …
… a lovely matador rose …
… pretty pansies …
… and last but not least, some very delightful and very fragrant wild orange.
Happy Friday.
Although it’s November we still have quite a variety of flowers contributing their lovely presence to the autumn riot of colour.
Happy Friday, happy weekend.
The wild mock orange is in profuse bloom right now …
… attracting lots of pollinators with their lovely scent …
… and, of course, the humans who like to admire the flowers and the pollinators, too.
Happy Father’s Day, dads.
During the first week in May, I made my annual trip to Lilacia Park in Lombard in perfect time to see the lilacs and tulips at their best. The garden…
Lilac Time In Lombard
I hope you stop by Sue’s blog, The Nature of Things, to see the rest of her beautiful photos of spring blooms.
A trip to the Penticton market had a distinctly autumnal air despite the heat.
Fresh raspberries and blackberries – the last of them, we were repeatedly told – were bountifully available.
The flower stalls were bursting with vibrant autumn colours. At 30C (86F), it doesn’t feel much like September, but those invigorating cooler temperatures will arrive soon.
Happy Sunday.
Aren’t they pretty?
Happy Tuesday.
I found this little flower happily blooming amidst the muddy, soggy ground of our rapidly melting snow.
Have a happy day.
