May Day Parade of Blooms


Welcome to the lusty month of May! Spring is finally busting out all over even if it is later than usual in places. I've arranged a parade of my favorites to celebrate it. 




Long lasting carnations under the eaves.




The first blushing pink tulips of the season.




I learned from faithful blogging friends to add pennies to tulips to keep them from drooping.




Faithful pansies in pots.







Pure and graceful white tulip in back lighting.






Potato vine.






Serene white roses.
















Armfuls of pink roses and watering cans.














English cottage dreaming.









The first shy spring blossoms.





Wishing you many more bloom filled days!
Ciao! for now!
Jacqueline

Don't miss these fun parties!

  5. Oh I am so in love with your photography, the flowers. Each time I thought, "ah that is my favorite picture", the next one was too! Since I adore white, texture and flowers, I had to go back over your photos several times. What an uplifting, stunning post this is! Thank you for stopping by my blog and leaving a sweet comment. Blessings.

  15. What fabulous arrays of blooms and the vignettes and photography of them is lovely. I'm particularly drawn to the long stemmed Roses against the Victorian Ceiling Tin background.
