I promise not to take a picture of every single flower that we have pop up this year. But I was so excited that the flowers are on the way that I just could not resist a few pictures. We have a ton of tulips that are just starting to open up. We have a field of jonquils that are not open yet. Alyssa's sweet peas are now living outside and climbing a trellis and we had our first 'grown from seed' petunia produce a flower. The petunias will be happier outside in some really strong sun, but for now I'm just excited we have flowers. I won't post anymore flower pictures until everything is in full bloom....I think.
I took these pictures yesterday and we had a beautiful sunny day, but the pictures look sort of drab. I guess I am not a photographer extraordinaire! Just pretend the pictures are bright are summer-ish looking, and the colors are vivid and brilliant! :-)
I love the dark red veins on the petunia. That is a 'Strawberry Sundae' wave petunia and I love them. I am going to plant it with some dark red geraniums and a few other red flowers and that red vein will really pop. I love flowers but I really love putting different color combinations together and designing the pots and baskets that we plant. I just love color.
