What's Blooming Now?

i love flowers...
have i ever told you that before? :)
well, just in case you haven't noticed, i love flowers...
thought it might be fun to have a "what's blooming now" post once in a while.
i mean, i have all these flower pics and
its not like i won't be noticing
what's blooming now. :)

so, first of all we have the humble coneflower
otherwise know as echinacea
thats what i always call it
dont know why as the other name is so much easier
but i always think of it as echinacea
love it
photographs so well
and bees love it too
so that makes for pretty and interesting pics
i have one i took a couple of years ago with a green bee on it
no kidding
didn't even know a green bee exsisted
but there it was
on the coneflower
and in my view finder
i was astounded
i believe i even posted a pic of it last year
will have to look up
its one of my favorites
the flower i mean
well love the pic pretty much too :)

and then there is the beautiful but under rated hydrangea
love them too
so pretty and i love the variety of colors
i also love that you can have 3 different bushes in 3 places in your yard
all blooming on the same day
and some are sky blue and some are
bright blue
and some are
lilac
and some are
pink
and some are
purple!
well,
what a fun plant is that?
you never know what you are going to get
and if you leave them on the bush until it gets cold
some will turn dark blue
and some will turn
green and some will even turn
maroon!
enjoy...
