Description

This ranunculus was about one day past perfect when I found it at the garden center, but I thought its slight imperfections added a touch of grace ... the petals thinning out to crepe paper transulscence. It seems like forever since I've gone on a flower binge. With Spring finally just around the corner, I might go nuts! Some would say it's a short trip. :)

Oh this is stunning, the colour is amazing and looking on the zoom the whole photo is so detailed. I love the colour yellow it just has a way of making me smile, and that has to be a good thing. Thank you, hugs Jane xx

LOL, I had a boss once who would reply to our comments about him driving us nuts: "it's just a short putt"!! This is even more beautiful seen this way, those slightly discolored leaves only add to the detail. Spring is springing, ever so slowly!!

A beauty. Had to take a minute to look this one up...Latin means "little frog". Glad I looked it up...left to my own, I'd probably have called this a carnation. I struggle when it comes to naming flowers and even many trees:)
