ReplyDeleteThanks you for the visit and the comment much appreciated. Keep well Diane
DeleteVery beautiful and lovely photos of the flowers. Greetings from Sri Lanka!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment and visit, so appreciated. Hope all is well over there, have a good week. Diane
DeleteHi Diane - those are lovely ... the little violas are particularly beautiful - though can understand why you'd love to send us the perfume of your roses. I hope you haven't had storms that have swamped the plants - still we need the rain - we haven't had much here ... but it's been around. Take care - Hilary
ReplyDeleteHi Hilary, those roses are very special, I must try and get some more cuttings from the plant as I have no idea what it is called. Stay safe, Diane
DeleteMarveling at your beautiful flowers. Have a beautiful day.
ReplyDeleteNancy I do love flowers, what would life be lie without them 🌼🌸 Have a good week. Diane
DeleteThe flowers are lovely indeed, Diane, and if there was a way to add the fragrance to the pictures that would make it all perfect! This is a fabulous time of year for inflorescence and our garden is brimming with colour, and the constant hum of pollinators going about their vital business. À la prochaine. David
ReplyDeleteWouldn't it be wonderful if we could get fragrance over the computer, but then on the other hand there would always be someone who would delight in putting on rotten eggs!!!! Keep well Diane
DeleteLove the blooms and the framing.
ReplyDeleteThanks Marie, I enjoy making the frames and adding a bit more colour. Stay safe, Diane
DeleteFabulous photos of absolutely gorgeous flowers, Diane! I've never seen potatoes look so attractive ;-}
ReplyDeleteTake great care and stay safe - - - Richard
Haha, the potatoes are quite attractive.

DeleteLove the pics and the framing.
ReplyDeleteThank you Pam, hope that all is well with you. Keep well Diane
DeleteI wish for scratch and sniff with the roses and honeysuckle.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't it be wonderful. Hope all is well in your part of the world. Stay safe Diane
DeleteGorgeous! Love the frames too. Thank you and stay safe and healthy :)
ReplyDeleteHi Denise, thanks for the kind comment. You keep well also. Diane
DeleteYour Poinsettia looks great! And so do all the others! Love the hydrangea, orchid and gorgeous rose. My dad had over 200 roses in the backyard when we lived in Louisville, KY. What aroma all summer, just like yours! Take care and be safe
ReplyDeleteThat Poinsettia is amazing a whole lot of new shoots have appeared. First plant to have ever made it this long in the Northern hemisphere!! Stay safe Diane
DeleteGorgeous floral shots, I think I know exactly the perfume of the orange rose, I had one very similar, sublime perfume 🌹 I think our winter temperature was warmer today than your summer temps Diane 😉
ReplyDeleteThank you Grace, we are at last warming up here and it feels more like summer at last. Next thing is we will want more rain!!! Stay well and have a good week Diane
DeleteHope all is well with you Pam. Have a good week Diane
ReplyDeleteOrchids are really the most stunning and varied flowers.
ReplyDeleteI am particularly pleased with these as they are from a cutting I took off another plant. Cheers Diane
