We were out really early for the dog walk, and it was already 72°F (22°C). Here is some hot hot color for your enjoyment
#Photography #SeattleWashington #LateSpring #BloomScrolling #OurNeighborhood #Smoketrees #Ninebark #Geraniums

A purple smoke tree and a gold and green ninebark bush provide some pleasing summery color contrasts. Some of the oval smoke tree leaves have sunlight striking them, creating an orange glow. You can see the lobed and serrated ninebark leaves unfurl in shades of golden orange, move to yellow ,and get greener as they age.

A purple smoke tree is fronted by vivid magenta geranium flowers rising above their palmate serrated fuzzy green leaves. The smoke tree has a panicle of orange and yellow flowers, so small they give a hazy smoky effect when you approach the tree.

Three things you find in a rose garden on a nice sunny day: 1. Roses, 2. People taking pictures of roses, 3. People taking pictures of people

It's another sunflower Sunday! The growers had so many sunflowers on sale yesterday, and the flowers are growing in the field right next door to me.

#BloomScrolling #Gardening #Devon

I'm really enjoying the high purpleness in the garden, with oodles of Purple Loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) and abundant second flowering of Wisteria, complimented by the deep pinkiness of Veronicastrum virginicum 'Fascination'. In there somewhere is also self-seeded Purple Toadflax. All a magnet for pollinators. I'm relishing them while I can, as they may not last in this heatwave.

P.S. This is a tiny garden, so plants like this have a real impact.

Part of a garden with numerous plants, most of the image taken up by three in particular. On the left is a tall plant with whorls of green leaves topped by spikes of dark pink flowers. On the right is another tall plant with darker green leaves and spikes of purple flowers. Across the back of the image is a climbing plant with lots of dangling purple flowers. In the foreground are several other small plants, one of which has a spike of orange flowers. A fern is just coming into the frame from the left.

Sometimes the simple ideas are harder to achieve. I wanted blue sky as a background, so I had to get low. But when you're low, things that are standing upright aren't on your plane of focus. So I did a Mr. Fantastic impression, holding the camera with one hand and pulling the stem closer with my foot. Neither the plant nor I were hurt in the process. 🌱

Stitches

#flowers #bloomscrolling #gardening #photography

Close-up photograph of about fifteen Lewisia buds, still tightly closed, showing the orange petals rolled up on themselves protruding from the green sepals, edged with small brown, almost black dots, resembling stippling, like stitches, hanging in groups of two or three at the ends of small stems beneath an already open flower. The background is bright green.

Photographie en gros plan d'une quinzaine de bourgeons de lewisia, encore bien fermés, montrant les pétales oranges enroulés sur eux-mêmes dépassant des sépales verts, bordés de petits points bruns presque noirs, ressemblant à des pointillés, comme des points de suture, pendant par groupe de deux ou trois au bout de petites tiges sous une fleur déjà ouverte. L'arrière-plan est vert vif.

Some orange and gold color pops in the greenery. Apparently this is the Oso Easy Paprika rose. A cheerful charmer
#Photography #SeattleWashington #OurNeighborhood #BloomScrolling #Roses #LateSpring #EKC #OrangeRoses

Six cheery roses make a pleasant lineup amid the glossy green roses leaves. The five ruffled gold petals are rimmed with orange. They surround the typical golden stamen swirl at the flower heart.

A macro black and white photograph of two saxifrage flowers, each with five dark petals and ten stamens arranged in a circle at its center, with glistening pollen grains scattered across the petals. Behind them, a sedum stem with its fleshy leaves appears gigantic compared to the small flowers.

Derrière, une tige de sédum avec ses feuilles charnues, ayant une allure gigantesque par rapport aux petites fleurs.

A macro black and white photograph of a cluster of tiny white flowers, only 5 mm across, arranged around a stem. The lower flowers are fully open, while the upper ones are just buds. The entire scene stands out against a dark background. The flowers have five sepals, five longer petals, ten long stamens with visible anthers at their tips, and an elongated pistil in the center.

Heartleaved foamflower (Tiarella cordifolia)

How nice to return to my farmers market today and see that dahlia season has begun!

#BloomScrolling #flowers #today

Front and center: A large dahlia bloom with magenta petals (with a bit of white in the center). To me, this type always looks like it's exploding with joy. This one dahlia bloom is surrounded by more of the same.

Macro photograph of a creeping phlox flower, its six petals with a tick at their ends, of a very pure white with only a few small pink dots surrounding the opening in the centre, through which six intense orange stamens emerge. A single drop of rain shines on the surface of the highest petal. The blurred background is made up of other similar flowers and buds that are still closed.

Photographie macro d'une fleur de phlox rampant, ses six pétales avec une coche à leur extrémité, d'un blanc très pur avec quelques petits points roses seulement entourant l'ouverture, par où sortent six étamines d'un orange intense. Une unique goutte de pluie brille sur la surface du pétale le plus haut. L'arrière-plan flou est composé d'autres fleurs semblables et de boutons encore fermés.

Globe flower - Boule d'or (Trollius sp.)

#bloomscrolling #flowers #gardening #macro #photography

Close-up photograph of a bright yellow orange flower, whose petals form almost a globe, taken from the side, Blurred to its right a little below, a bud still closed, greenish-yellow. Both are on their dark green stems with a few leaves. The background is blurred, sloping and lime green due to creeping jenny (lysimachia nummularia ), mixed with the brown of dead leaves.

Photographie en gros plan d'une fleur jaune vif, presque orange, dont les pétales forment presque un globe, prise de côté, Floue à sa droite un peu dessous, un bouton encore fermé, jaune verdâtre. Tous les deux sont sur leur tige vert foncé avec quelques feuilles. L'arrière-plan est flou, en pente et d'un vert lime dû à du lysimaque nummulaire, mêlé au brun des feuilles mortes.

Good morning. Early summer blooms are blooming away. #Photography #Today #Chicago #bloomscrolling

A portrait shot of a single bearded iris flower in full bloom. The flower features ruffled, upright standards that blend from white to pale lavender, and spreading lower falls with white centers transitioning into vibrant violet-purple edges. Yellow and orange fuzzy beards are visible at the center of the bloom.

Hibiscus "Oiseau Bleu" in my front yard.

The first flower got scorched in the sun, the second flower caught fire, fell over and then sank into the swamp, but the third flower... The third flower is beautiful!

If you're lucky you'll find a friend who gets you... who really sees you. That friendship can be so important to helping you grow and blossom.

Looking at you @Wallflower 🙂

Banquet in the Blooms

#SilentSunday #StillerSonntag #BloomScrolling #Blossom #Garden #Photography #Photo #NaturePhotography #Insects #Bees

A close-up photograph captures a fuzzy bumblebee that looks like a Common Carder Bee (Bombus pascuorum) on the right side of the frame, it has landed on a vibrant purple flower stalk. Perhaps a "Purple Toadflax" (Linaria purpurea). The bee is covered in dense, light-tan hairs across its upper body and a mix of grey and black banding toward its abdomen, with its delicate, translucent wings extended. It appears focused on a single blossom, its head buried in the petals preparing to feed.

The wildflower stalk extends vertically through the center of the image, showcasing a dense cluster of rich purple and violet snapdragon-like blossoms blooming at the bottom, while tightly closed green buds taper toward the top. A tiny, light-brown insect rests on one of the lower petals. The background is softly blurred, filled with lush green foliage and a few stray, dry twigs that put the focus entirely on the bee and its flower.

The photographer's watermark in the corner reads "Paul Jackson"

I had access to an abundance of new to me dahlia tubers this year.
The wait for them to open up is often long.
This one is called Terracotta and it has been teasing a flower for weeks. It is big and beautiful and worth the wait.

One of the wildflowers of southwest Colorado that I look forward to every year, the stunning colors, wiry leaves, intricate stamens, and fuzzy details of Scarlet Globemallow are pretty incredible if you look closely.
