Lovely Flowers – April
For the month of April I shared four floral photos on my Facebook page. Â Here is the behind the photo story, hope you enjoy…
Succulents have quickly become one of my favorite plants. Â When we were on vacation last summer we saw lots of succulents everywhere. Â I’ve never really seen them up close before, or been exposed to so many different varieties, and fell in love with their colors, textures, and hardiness! Â They don’t need a lot of water so they are great for adding color to your yard without having to water them a lot.Â
These Begonias are so pretty.  I love the pink petals with gold centers!  My daughter & I were going to the Farmer’s Market one day and these little beauties were in the parking lot.  I had to stop and take a couple of pictures. Â
Is it real or fake? Â My daughter & I went to the Paint Festival for one of her classes. Â It was a great event, messy, but fun. Â There were live bands, booths, food, and lots of color, everywhere! Â This Water Lily was in a bowl of water in one of the booths. The guy said I could take pictures of it and asked me why I wanted to take pictures of a fake flower! Â I would’ve never known if he hadn’t told me he bought it at Michael’s. Â It still had the tag on it too. Â It is gorgeous even if it is a fake flower!
The Double Delight Rose is one of my favorite flowers. Â My husband gave me this rose bush many years ago. Â I wish I could add the fragrant smell for you too! Â Pick a few of these and your whole room will smell good. Â This was one of the first blooms of Spring this year. Â The colors are incredible, I just love it.
I hope you enjoyed the April flowers as much as I did!
Thank you for reading.
Have a great day,
