CFFC: Single Flowers or Bud

In the header – Cattleya Ginny ”Prince”.

Don’t we all love flowers? Visit Cee or join in with a flower post here.

 

Cattleyas are my absolute favourite orchids. This one has a delicate scent…floating through my rooms when in flower. It is budding right now.

This beauty belongs to a very dear friend of mine. A truly grand Cattleya, and as you can see, the flower is bigger than everything else here, including stems and pot.

As usual, click to enlarge.

CFFC: Happy

Totti is almost always happy, and many things make me happy as well – this is only a tiny selection…In fact, I like being happy, so I am constantly working on it…Thank you, Cee, for the reminder!

Ailsa wants some good solutions here…and what about roses? New Dawn or old bush roses – I find both of them charmingly fresh. Other solutions? Click here.

The roses on the left come from a more than one hundred year old bush. An old lady had them growing in her garden and I asked if I could get one - which I could!

These tiny roses come from a more than one hundred year old bush. An old lady had them growing in her garden and I asked if I might dig up a piece – and she gave me permission to do so. They still are a feast to the eye every June.

SL-WEEK 38: Yellow

Yellow is a very special colour. It symbolizes a variety of things; for example the sun, being false (in the language of flowers) and power – only for the emperor of China.

I love yellow, but cannot wear it. Others can with elegance – like houses, vehicles and flowers.
