Gorgeous colors and full bloom at Ketchikan's Whale Park.

Mimosa, anyone?
From Out and About in Florida
Another bug making his presence known (not a suprise in Florida!)
I love how the tannin in the waters of the Okefenokee make for such a great mirror effect.
We had a Mimosa tree in my yard as I was growing up but I didn't remember how great they smelled until I went out to take pictures of them!
Wild iris taken at Lake Lochloosa, Florida.
Reminds me of waking up and getting ready to stretch first thing in the morning.
I was happily surprised to come home and start editing photos only to see this white spider posing for a picture on this spiderwort flower!
Dainty little wild petunia flowers in my back yard.
The marsh area was covered in these wildflowers during late spring at Lake Lochloosa.

This is a gardenia daisy... fragrant like a gardenia with the size of a daisy...
If you saw this in a garden, would you know it is a weed??

This is a rose called the White Out rose... the buds open creamy yellow and petals turn white on the first afternoon of blooming.
So bright that these teensy little flowers caught me eye!
Rich contrasting hues... so lovely.
