SUNDAY 24th July: Flowerfest III (Town Park)
Mum: So, we got up early and went for a walk before breakfast today. IT STILL got too hot, but at least by that time they were worn out and going slowly.
The flowers were AMAZING, and I ended up snapping so many that I need an extra blog entry so that the Mutts don't resent the floral take over:
The park rose garden from a distance, doesn't look much in this shot:
But the closeups tell a different story
Bored and waiting for me to finish taking the pics
Bedding displays (a bit twee for my liking, but the plants look really happy)
These are the same orange gerryanums from Foxy, but the addition of the yellow marigolds makes a big difference, don't you think?
One stray red invader! hahahaha!
Yellow rose of sharon (I've only ever seen yellow ones round here)
Hebe
White frothy thing - exquisite
My favourite flower bed in the park. Lavender, yucca, and shrubs. Very calming.
These red roses are in a complete ring, maybe 35 feet across, around the band stand.
Day lilies
Echinacea (I think)
Crocosmia (see the bee?)
