Gorgeous flowers Mike. It's a good thing your photos have more staying power than the flowers.

Thank you very much Bill, for some reason they are blooming this year like never before, my wife says it must be the smoke from all the fires we have around here.

These are blooming in my garden right now, too bad they lasts only about two days.
These are simply beautiful Mike. Perfect use of well chosen backgrounds! Cactus flowers always amaze my with their delicacy. It is interesting that this smoky year may have given your garden a boost, the sage in our yard has really taken off this year as well. Splendid work as always my friend.

Thank you so much my friend, everything blooms nice this year, maybe I have not been so stingy with watering. Something is eating my Lobelia flowers, I suspect the blue jay but I have yet to see it. We sure are having a cool summer, I take early walks and it was cold today.

Wonderful images of beautiful blooms Mike. Glad you have the images since the actual bloom doesn't last long. Bev

Fantastic series of floral images Mike. Each one is exquisite, so kind of hard to pick a favorite, but I am especially fond of #5.
