Little White Blooms

Thought you would like to see the red 'matchsticks' (Viburnum) from last week (here) that are now a lighter shade of red (pink) and in bloom.

So very pretty and delicate.

Exquisite. The red 'matchstick' buds open up the whitest flower. The total view of bud, flower and leaf are a multi-color treat. We can't ever imagine such beauty, but nature creates more beauty that we can fathom...

That's a terrific shot but I'm not familiar with that type of Verbena. Sure is pretty!

Wow, they are beautiful! I loved that original picture, too. I have something that will look very similar, when it blooms I'll have to shoot it so we can compare.
