A Week of Flowers: Day Four

Welcome back to my Week of Flowers!

At this time of year we need something to remind us of the beauty our gardens and nature offer us in the warmer months. Something to start our day off with a smile. So join me this week in sharing some of your brightest floral photos of something you have grown this year for A Week of Flowers 2024, going through till Friday December the 6th. Just one a day, or a few if you like, it doesn’t really matter. And even if you can’t post every day, perhaps you can contribute on one or two days. Then leave a link below my post for that day so others can find you.

Well, the ball is rolling and so many have already joined in with this botanical bonanza with cheering and colourful contributions. It is grey and cold and frosty here, so today, for Day Four, I am in need of a really big splash of PINK!

Thank you for joining in or simply reading, liking and commenting. 💕

See you tomorrow!

The zinnias I planted out in the garden have struggled, since I rarely water the flower beds and it has been such a dry summer. But growing them (and dahlias) in containers or pots has worked extremely well; they were put next to my tomato plants which are given a drink daily, so I could not forget to water them too. And this is the reward. Lovely jubbly! The Echinacea (and Calendula) on the other hand are fine in the flower beds and have proved themselves to be extremely drought-proof. In ...
