floral beauty

Steve's birthday was Monday.   Some cheery flowers for his office window I picked from outside




Here are few along the driveway
Do not know the name of the very large shrub in the distance but it scents the yard with a super sweet fragrance.


this azalea gets larger each year




the blooms of some are almost as large as a dinner plate


closer pix of the large very sweet scented shrub



Another peek at the home office window

with a peek from lil Adalyn who is always snooping around in here,  she loves pencils ,  paper and of course INK.


Sharing with "A Southern Daydreamer"  out door Wednesday

Betsy, what a spunky little one. Too cute!. Your peonies are gorgeous. I tried planting some but the plant just starts to come up and then it disappears. I think those crazy mystical flowers that come every summer just force it out. Now, I'm no expert but that beautiful bush looks to me like one my grandmother had when I was a little girl. We always called it syngieria. I'm not even sure of the spelling but it looked very similar and it smelled so good. I remember it very fondly Hopefully someone else will shed some light...Happy Wednesday..Judy

Since I am yard and flower person, truly enjoyed seeing all your beauties. The little one is the best flower of all.
