Bloomin'

It's only March, but most plants are under the impression that it's like May or something! (At least for what I'm used to--May in New England = March in the South.) Blooms, petals, leaves, and the pollen, and the pollen and the pollen. And oh, did I say the pollen? It is crazy. Yes, of course we have pollen up north, but here it just coats the very ground. I'm not exxagerating. We have to spray down the porch and driveway/cars everyday 'cuz it's so bad.
           But the colors are amazing, so prepared to be stunned!

The flowers are blossoming in every imaginable hue... blue,...

....muted pinks.....

....pale greens,....
....hot pinks.....

....flamenco dancer reds....
...dreamy hued pinks.....

....flaming yellows...

....gauzy, bridal whites.....

....deep magentas...
....rich, royal purples...
....pure, innocent ivories....

Every color of the rainbow!
