Default Trip to the Nursery... It's Spring!!!!!

We stopped by a nursery in search of tomato plants. We passed on the tomatoes, but
I was sure happy I had my camera!

I don't really know my flowers, but I know what I like in color and I liked this beauty.

I thought the blue in the center of the white was striking!

Deep purple.

What a great way to end a Sunday outing.

Hope you all have a great week!

So, so pretty! I'm glad you had your camera also! I am going to have to try this. Where else can you find such a wide variety of beautiful flowers to shoot. Nice job! Thanks for sharing them.

Ahh, my daughter and I had just discussed going to our local Lowes nursery, they just got a new delivery and the flowers are beautiful. So, this just proves that great minds all think alike.

Thanks Southernbelle

The first one is my wife's favorite one too. She said it belongs on a calendar. You know
she is right so often.
