Still Serving

A frozen sunflower head droops forlornly …

… but still contains many of its seeds, providing winter sustenance for birds and squirrels.

Happy Sunday.

A Flower Today

We have a lot of snow falling today, so I think it’s time for some bright, pretty flowers, zinnias, for example.

Great summer memories. Happy Friday.

No Snow Today …

Nov 22, 2022 Lynette d'Arty-Cross 25 Comments

… time for some flowers from a July day in Penticton, and especially for our Ontario family and friends, who received a metre of snow (3.3 feet) over the weekend!

I often visit the Penticton rose garden when I am at home. The roses usually last quite late into the autumn, but this is a lovely walk at any time of year.

I’ve posted some of these photos before, but now is a good time to see them again!

The rose garden’s focus is, of course, roses, but there are many other beauties as well, including these dianthus.

Happy Tuesday.

Beautiful at any time, but especially now with the shortening daylight hours and winter’s imminent arrival.

Happy Friday; happy weekend.

Autumn Hydrangeas

Oct 15, 2022 Lynette d'Arty-Cross 10 Comments

I found some very pretty hydrangeas still blooming away in a protected corner.

I love how their colours graduate from pink to pinky white. So lovely and very different from all the Halloween pumpkins that are beginning to pop up everywhere!
