Today's Flowers #52

There are many pink flowers in the garden right now.

Antirrhinum, commonly called 'snapdragon' and a flower I knew as a child as 'rabbits' mouths' or 'bunny rabbits'


Japanese anemone - there is a white variety, too, but we only have the pink ones

In our pond, along with the fish, frogs, newts, duckweed . . . and so on and so on . . . houttuynia 'Chameleon' thrives

Lacecap hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla normalis) - I've lost the label so can't name it


Stargazer lily (Lilium 'Stargazer') - very showy with a heady perfume


Sweetly scented pink climbing rose - again I've lost the label :-(


This is the first anniversary of 'Today's Flowers' - congratulations!
Thank you to Luiz Santilli Jr. for creating this meme and to Luiz, Denise Gullickson, Laerte Pupo and Valkyrien for hosting it each week.

You have a Happy flower garden over there. I love the pinky shade of the blooms. Great springtime indulgence. Thanks for the visit. Yes, it is a rare orchids indeed! I was very lucky to be allowed to photograph it along with the rests that I posted last week, I think? Or the week before.
