Shades of Pink in the Garden
.
I don’t know what color is most beautiful to you in the garden, but to me, without a shadow of a doubt, that color is PINK! I just adore the loveliness of all the different shades of pink dominating my gardens. I also plant flowers in soft yellows, blues or whites to harmonize with the pinks. However, I never use orange flowers, and only have one red flower variety: ruby red double Knock-Out roses because they can withstand this Southern humidity so much better than my other roses can.
I haven’t posted about my garden since Spring when my bleeding hearts, daffodils, azaleas, and iris were in bloom, so I felt that it was long overdue to ‘take a walk in my gardens’! So come along and see what bloomed this summer on the acreage!
and that you can get outside and smell some fresh flowers!
I’m not really a big fan of pink, except with flowers. And ties.

Beautiful! I’m a big fan of pink also. Unfortunately, I have neglected my garden terribly this summer. It’s just so hot to get out there and work.
Beautiful Roz.Thanks for sharing your garden with us.
These are beautiful Roz, I like your garden very much. I also plant echinacea, but I don’t really get a visitor (butterfly) yet.
I love pink a in the garden but sadly not in Italy in August, the pink has long since gone from our garden. So it was a real treat to view these this evening.
Absolutely gorgeous Roz. My echinacea has been gone for a couple of months. I miss it – it’s one of my favorites.
The close-ups are fabulous, especially of the butterfly.

Absolutely breath taking are you a professional photographer? wow~

Wow, your beautiful sunrise/sunset flower lives up to it’s name!
Your pinks are lovely. My garden is on its last legs so I have to get my pleasures from such as yours. By the way, I’m going to try your Italian Cream Cake as it is one of my favorite desserts.
Simply Beautiful!!

The David Austen rose on the the arbor is my favourite amongst the many gorgeous blooms you shared.

it’s a sad truth that i don’t know the first thing about flowers. well, i guess i know the first thing–i can at least tell between, say, a rose and a tulip, but you know what i mean. regardless, i still know when something’s beautiful, and these are that! i resisted liking pink for the longest time, but now i’m a full-fledged fan. 🙂
Those roses are gorgeous. I can’t grow anything to save my life, but orange and purples are always favorites to look at.
Beautiful flowers and gorgeous pictures!!

Hi there, I’m so glad that I’ve found you via Java’s blog hop! I virtually “married the mob” 22 years ago when I married my husband who was born to Italian post war immigrants to Australia, and raised as a very traditional Italian.
I’ll be bookmarking you to visit more, and am following you on twitter.
Cate 🙂
You’ve certainly taken some beautiful photos for an “amatuer”!
I’m dropping by from the Over 40 Follow Friday.

Pink is one of my favorite colors – and what lovely photos! Your recipes look amazing as well. My husband and I made our first visit to Italy (Turin) in March. We were absolutely in love with the food! I’m your newest follower from Follow Friday 40 and Over!
