Flower Parade

Of course, I need to begin with the most awesome flower you just saw
on my home page...The Eastern Prickly Pear Cactus!
TADA!

There's going to be quite a few photos following this, so hang on tight!
I'll just show the photos and if you have any questions about any of them,
please ask away in the comments section.

Blanket Flower

Boomerang Lilac

The Boomerang Lilac was given to me on Saturday by my friend Nancy.  It will
bloom three times throughout the season and this is my first wee flowers on it.

Bougainvillea

Can someone tell me what this is?  I can't remember....that happens when you're
fifty!  hahaha!  It has these pink blooms as well as white and deep red ones?

Foxglove

Gerbera Daisy

This Daisy was a Mother's Day gift from Robynn!

Lavender

My all-time favourite by far is Lavender.
Mmmmmm.....so relaxing.

Lupines

If you know me, you'll know I started these Lupines from seeds I
brought back from Nova Scotia.

Mister Lincoln Rose (check out the antennae on that bug!)

Purple Catmint

Lorraine

This Lorraine plant is special to me because my friend "Lorraine" gave it to me.
I can never forget the name of the plant!

I'm sure I'll have more to show you in the coming weeks, but here's just a
wee peak at how I displayed the flowers in my powder room.
No one can miss them there, even if they came in the back gate instead of the garden!

Thanks for viewing!
with love.....from the flower child (at heart)
