|
I took a lot of flower pictures and some I can name and some I can't name. So, here are a few of them. I will name the ones that I can and you can name the others or someone will, I'm sure.
This one I really like, but forgot what Glenda said it was named.
I know this one. It starts with plum. I think plumeria?
Sunflowers, of course.
Petunias in a large container. Just beautiful.
A couple lilies of the orange variety.
Purple lantana is this one and an orange variety is after it.
Glads, pink. The yellow and wine colored ones were still just buds.
This one is a whole bed of things.
Now, some purple and white dahlia's, I hope that's right.
I think this one is walking iris.
Orange canna and a red canna.
a large mimosa tree
and last one here is a moonflower. There were some pink ones but they didn't turn out very well.
I hope I got most of them right. Glenda has many more flowers. They are so beautiful. Every morning dr and I would get up and go out to walk through the yard and admire the beauty of the flowers and check to see if something new had appeared. dooley

My, but Glendann has green thumb, and some lovely flowers for sure! I love the iris, although it was really hard to choose with all that she has to pick from.
