Did I tell you that I got more chrysanthemums?
I wouldn’t say they are my favourite flower, but they are up there near the top. I love so many different flowers. I have to admit one thing that gets me is the name of flowers. The same with trees. If they have interesting or funny names I often want to plant them.
We are in Autumn now and that means it is time for Chrysanthemums. I bought 8. I have planted 4 in pots and put the other 4 in the garden. Time will tell next spring if I still have all of them.
Only a few of them have come out so far, so I prepared three images for you. I hope you like them.
The images were taken with my Fujifilm X-T3 and my 80mm macro lens.
Beautiful!!
Thanks Nora.
Lovely Leanne 🙂
Thank you Brian.
It’s hard to choose my favs, but I love the spring flowers, peonies and
Sunflowers
I haven’t had any luck growing those, but think I might have to try harder. Great choices Beth, thank you.
Such beautiful, vibrant colors.
Thank you, they are great colours.
I love finding out the names of flowers. Some of them are so strange. Some are even harder to spell so I always have to laugh when our garden centers advertise these flowers only as ‘mums.’ Whew! Relieves a whole lot of spelling errors.
They are very strange. I have lots of Lilly Pillies in my garden because of the name. They are trees though. I always think of Anne of Green Gables with them, the spelling contest. Though they are easy to spell Chrys-an-the-mums.
Thank you Lois.
My goodness these are lovely, Leanne.
Thank you Dawn.
Beautiful flowers, Leanne! We are just coming into summer here, 86F today. It won’t be long until it’s over 100F every day. 🌴😎🌞🔥
Thank you John. We are most definitely heading into winter, even had to turn the heater on a couple of times. You stay cool and I’ll stay warm. 😎
I’ve been running the heat in the morning and the AC in the afternoon! 😂
I am not big on the heat, it has be really cold for me to turn it on, which drives Dave nuts. The AC, doesn’t take much for me to put that on. I like this time of the year where you rarely need either of them.
Stay warm. 😊😊
I will John. 😀
Lovely shots! It takes patience to plant flowering plants and more patience to take pictures and develop them. You could say the pictures of such pretty flowers are the fruit of your labor! 👏👏
Yeah it does, but if you love it you don’t notice. I guess they are, thank you.
