Love the rose bud, so perfect. Then the potato flowers made we smile. Little turbans. All in all a very pretty stroll. I'm still waiting on my blanket flowers to open. They are hanging tight for some reason.
My blanket flowers are in a sunny westward facing garden, so they are early bloomers. :)
This is the first year we've grown potatoes. We are pinching off all the buds, to promote potato growth, but had to snap this photo first. You can sure tell they are in the nightshade family from the blossoms!
my dear, this is all so lovely, such beautiful color, most especially the pink roses, my favorite!
have a wonderful week!!

Linda, The blooming rose is fairy rose" and each blossom is really small and delicate - I don't know if that is obvious from the photo. I actually can't remember what the bud looks like in full bloom... so we'll have to wait and see on that one. Thanks for the nice comment!
