We are joining Rosy this week for Nature Friday~~
We had a heat wave going on earlier this week and it was honestly, way too hot for May and we are so grateful that those high temps are behind us - at least for now.
Leaving the end of our driveway we discovered a beautiful flower that we were not familiar with. The internet says that it's Election Pink and it's in the Rhododendron family~
We found more fragrant Lilacs in bloom~
At home, our white perennial Bachelor Buttons are flowering~
Along our walk, the blue ones are blooming too!
Mom kept seeing this beautiful red flower and decided to walk over and see what it was. It's a gorgeous Flame Azalea!
Happy Friday!
Love ya lots♥
so much wonderful purple flowers.. and your super cute smile... that must be a super good friday O)
ReplyDeleteDuke we're glad to see you still have so many beautiful things blooming. Early spring things are just so cheerful. We had the hots earlier this week too and then the cold rain came and we just can't seem to get warmed up again.
ReplyDeletePretty flowers all around you. Glad your heat went away. We had heat last weekend and then frost most mornings this week and the heat is coming back on Sunday. The up and down can stop anytime now!

ReplyDeleteYou found more gorgeousness to share with us this week - I'm just loving your smile! hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
I just love and at the same time wonder how the Rhodie relative got the name Election Pink.
ReplyDeleteDuke we had 4 straight days of 95+ highs last week. Today it was 61 at wake up that felt glorious
Hugs cecilia

Of course, humans are complaining of the wet and rain - it's actually cancelled the Saturday events at the airshow at HIA - we still need the rain in our virtual rainbucket -

Lulu: "It's too early in the year for heat waves, especially for us long-furred dogs, right, Duke? No matter how much the flowers might like them!"
ReplyDeleteYou look very happy sweet Duke and you sure found some pretty blooms!
ReplyDeleteYou founds some beautiful flowers today, Duke. You sure look happy posing with them.
ReplyDeleteYou have beautiful flowers in this part of the world.
ReplyDeleteYou are right about the heat. It is like we had leap month and were at the end of June.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful plants, I hope they didn't smell too strong for your sensitive nose, dear Duke.
ReplyDeleteYou have lots of beautiful flowers in your neighbourhood. We had a couple days of hot weather, I had to turn on my AC; now it's chilly again.
ReplyDeleteHi hi hi! Ojo here! What a beautiful Walk! Did you find as many good smells as you found pretty flowers?
