Red and yellow flower with green leaves

The news continues to be appalling, sharing a flower #BloomScrolling

A cluster of soft lavender-purple primrose flowers fills the frame in a top-down view. Each flower features five delicate, heart-shaped petals surrounding a bright, star-shaped yellow center with a white border. The blossoms are tightly packed together, overlapping slightly and creating a vibrant, spring-like pattern. The lighting is soft and even, highlighting the smooth texture of the petals and the vivid contrast of the yellow centers.

Good morning 🌼 Happy Monday!

Giant stalks with small leaves and tiny purple flowers. On the foreground stock on the left there are two bees enjoying the flowers. On the right front is a bee about twice as big in every dimension, perhaps a carpenter bee instead of a honeybee?

#bloomscrolling with a BEE and two honeybees for scale

I think the big one is a carpenter bee? But then what are the intermediate size black ones I often see around? Different species of carpenter bee?

I want to bee educated!

Plum blossoms, buds, and young green leaves cross the frame from lower right to upper left. Behind the trees there is a hazy night sky with a few visible stars

It’s another #MagentaMonday and this macro of a tulip, or saucer
Magnolia, was a #Stunday stunner. #MacroMonday #Bloomscrolling #Flowers 🌱 #TreeFlowers #EastCoastKin #Photography #ColorADay #PinkMon

Cream, red and yellow tulip bloom newly opened on the ground with a closed red bud behind it

I'm always a sucker for a newly opened tulip 🌷 #bloomscrolling #nature #eastcoastkin

One hot pink flower among leaves growing on a succulent plant. It is a baby sunrose, a close up view so that the texture of the leaves can be seen. One leaf to the lower right of the flower looks like it has been partially eaten perhaps by a caterpillar or something. One leaf at the left of the frame is partly seen and is not that of a a baby sunrose, but I don't know what it is.

One of these leaves is not like the others

But I digress .... it's Monday so it's all about the flower

Two maroon skunk cabbage, one with a spathe wide open with spadix dotted with bisexual flowers in a very symmetrical pattern.

That is some texture. #bloomscrolling #skunkcabbage

Tulips

Let me be me & let you be you.
I’m not changing you
&
You’re not changing me.
So why the silence between us?
This gap, in part, is the difference.
Let’s do away with it
Let’s be ourselves
Let’s love again
The way laughter parts our lips.

Keukenhof 🇳🇱

An orange blossom at the top right corner (one person told me what she sees is a Hawaiian turtle) in dark blue water with plant life like green lily pads that surface in the bottom left corner between the white ripples of water. The bottom right corner shows a pink or purpled hued water lily with its petals leaning left. Little ripples are on the left. A light blue part in the water is above this flower maybe it’s a splash; maybe it’s reflection of something else. I leave that up to the viewer to decide. It’s painted on rolled linen nailed to my dining room wall where I do all my painting.

It’s a painting in process. I’m painting a little each day figuring out where it takes me. #BloomScrolling #EastCoastKin #WestCoastKin

Close-up focus on the multicoloured and patterned lip of a phalaenopsis orchid. The white column pokes out above, and the deep wine and magenta galaxy patterned sepal and petals are partially visible above. The backs of yellow petals with wine speckled and hot pink edges are bokeh below in the background, with the green stem curving off frame to the right.

An overhead view of a shallow, scalloped white bowl filled with water, holding a dozen floating flowers arranged in a loose circle. The blooms vary in color and pattern, including deep purple, plum, pink, white, green, and variegated petals with speckles and dark edges. Each flower has a prominent cluster of pale yellow stamens at the center. The bowl sits outdoors on a rough stone path with moss growing between the stones.

Large orange red Clivia in full bloom.

Big red Clivia - no longer a seedling, now full size and in its second year of bloom. Very pleased with this one! Came in the same batch of no-nane seedlings as my new butter yellow Clivia.
