Today’s Flowers #11


My contribution to Today’s Flowers (Go click the link and visit to see more!) is a very ordinary flower. It’s called Shepherd’s Needle.  However – even though it is very common – it’s colors and vibrancy is extraordinary, putting some of the super dooper florists flowers to shame.

    One single perfect flower! It’s a thing of beauty and very pure! Besides composites are my favourite flowers.
    Thank you for your visit and comment about mr. goanna. When they are indigenous animals they are protected, but when people import them and set them free, they will soon become a pest, like the rabbits in Australia and the possums in New Zealand. In the Netherlands we have to deal with the muskrat, which is a threat to our dikes. Some collector of rare foreign animals set them free and they became soon a real pest.Well… some people never learn…

  9. Lucky you are to still be able to find beautiful flowers still in bloom! Other than the remaining fading colour holding out against the onslaught of morning frost, my garden in now all but deserted by blossoms.
