Floral Friday – My Asters are flowering

I’ve tried growing these before, but I’m very happy that my asters are finally flowering and thought one would be good for Floral Friday.

Well, really only one of them is flowering and there is only one flower. They are very pretty and I’m so glad it made it through winter here.

I have quite a few plants that are still in pots and looks like a couple of died, sadly. Though, quite a few are slowly shooting new shoots. I’m excited for many of them to flower so I can photograph them.

This morning I headed out with my macro lens, but I couldn’t do much. It was quite windy and as I was trying to take more it started raining. The rain is nice since the last few days have been really warm. Maybe even hot. Summer is really rushing in and I hate it.

We have had lots of sunny days and the only good thing about them is how much energy we are generating with our solar panels. This month we are celebrating that it is now 12 months since we paid for electricity. Every bill we have had since October last year has seen a negative sign before the dollar amount. Brilliant.

Anyway, I have the Aster for you. I love these little flowers and I hope you do as well.
