October Blooms Too!

Some blooms, and there are still a lot more, but space doesn't allow! I even dropped off some uploads, I wonder why I can't stop uploading sometimes. Do you encounter such a feat too? And there are occasions on the contrary, i feel so lazy uploading even if the photos are blatantly looking at me. Maybe this is the effect of anticipating the long weekend, 4 days at home. And that means I will get a lot of butterfly and insect photos. Hmm, that is the promise, and now i have to stop uploading! Stop me...

I can almost post this for GBBD, but it is still the wrong date.

Celosia argentea, red

Anthurium andraeanum

I forgot the name of this, I assure you i know it before, is this sign of the times!

pink Zinnia elegans

gaillardia 

marigold, Tagetes erecta. It is amazing how this bud looks like the bottom when fully opened.

    How nice to see such beautiful flowers, as we have the windows gray and sad. Yours.

    1. Thanks Gemma for dropping by. I smiled at your description of 'intriguing', i guess if plants are not growing in our climate zones, they get to be intriguing, haha! That is sometimes what i feel also for temperate flowers!
