TODAY'S FLOWERS ~ Blue and Gold

With cold wet winter here our once blue skies have turned to
grey though smiling still in bright blue pots of Lobelia.



A stray gold Rose still blooms defiantly, hoping against hope to
be last in line for pruning.

    Beautiful blue and gold flowers to brighten the dull-skied days of late fall!

    I too hope you are recovering well and gaining strength each day.

    The new types of Lobelia seem to bloom a lot better than the old types, especially during the summer. It is hard to get that color blue in the garden from anything else.

    The Lobelia looks beautiful! And yes, ROSES though dainty in nature have strong sense of defiance and resiliency. They thrive against the odds as we humans do.

    (I heard from a reliable source that you are not feeling well?)

    It's time for us to rag up like sausage rolls and warm up. :)

    Weather down our way seems pretty dramatic and traumatic to those who had been hit hard by the recent catastrophes.

    the bright blue pots of Lobelia makes it a very attractive colour.

    Are you 100% now?

    The rose is breathtakingly beautiful! I like the colour of the Lobelias- we don't get them here. Probably it is too hot for them here.
