It is Pink Saturday!!!
Today, I thought that I would share with you a few photos of flowers that are blooming in my yard. (See why it is so hard to get in the mood for fall decorating with these beauties?)
I love these fuchsia impatiens. I think they are just beautiful. And the rains we have had from the hurricanes have given them a whole new flush of blooms.
I like to plant them with caladiums. They just go so well together. How do you like my little pink tea cup votive holder? I bought several of these about 3 years ago at Old Time Pottery Barn. (I just love that place.) This is the only one that has survived my child and the neighbor children playing in the yard.
I love Vincas. These little pinks with the hot pink centers are my favorite. They are peeking out from some weeds. One thing about rains from hurricanes. Yes they relieve drought conditions, give us an extra flush of blooms and boy those weeds start coming!!! I also gave them a good dose of fertilize just before Gustauv b/c I knew we would get plenty of rain from that one.
This vinca is HOT PINK really HOT PINK! With a pretty pink center. It came out of the camera red, so I did photo shop it a tad. Then I remembered I have a filter on my camera lens. I probably should have taken it off. Will do that next time.
I love pink flowers and usually plant a lot of them in my yard every year. I think they make just a beautiful presentation in any yard.

Oh! Those are pretty pink flowers. Every year I forget to plant vincas and they really like our hot summers.

I have a similar color of vinca (we call them periwinkles, too!) in black pots on my patio! They are such a hardy flower! Your calidiums and impatients look great mixed together. Your surviving votive holder lookes sweet! Happy PSat! Dana
Happy Pink Saturday, Melissa.
Vinca and caladiums are both favorites of mine. My mother always planted them when I was growing up. Yours are lovely.
Beautiful pink flowers!

It's so nice to see beautiful summer blooms this time of the year!
Hi!!!
Beautiful flowers!
Happy Pink Saturday!
I agree with you about how hard it is to get into fall decorating because just like you all my pink and white impatiens are just gorgeous right now. There is no way I will pull them out to put in mums. LOL...I'll figure out a way to make pink an orange work.
Your plants look wonderful! I wish I could keep those babies alive!
Beautiful pink flowers!!!
