The pansies are such a cheerful sight when the day is grey and overcast and they seemed to be waving hello in the wind.
Can't believe another week has gone by!

The photos of the pansies and the camelia are beautiful. Pansies are a pleasure to grow and look at and are such good value for money as they last so long.

lovely with the big bowls of fruit etc.

Dear Carolyn, I guess you are way into spring in your part of the world, pansies are so significant of that season.;) While us here on the other side of the globe are getting ready to enter winter.;))
ReplyDeleteHave a great Sunday,
xoxo
Pansies are such pretty little flowers. Colors are so much brighter in the rain. We are getting frost at night but my violas on the south side of the house are still blooming!
ReplyDeleteWonderful birthday celebration.
Enjoy the day..........*s*
Pansies are always such happy flowers!
ReplyDeleteHi Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteHow pretty your pansy flowers. I just love these little dainty blooms and have many planted too as they do very well here in winter months to spring.
Your gorgeous white camellia is so pretty. I would love to have a white in my garden. Mine is red, pretty but there is something about the white that just looks so fresh.
Looks like a fun time had by all at your friends birthday party.
Thank you for sharing. Have a special Sunday and thank you for stopping by and your kind comment. You are always so dear.
Hugs, Celestina Marie
I love them all!!!^^
