Blooming in May

Happy May Day everyone. Anyone else old enough to remember May Day celebrations in schools. No classwork on May Day, it was more of a fancy field day. The girls had to wear white dresses and we danced around a May Pole, weaving ribbons suspended from the top of the pole. The whole school and school yard were decorated with all sorts of beautiful fresh flowers. Sure sounds unusual today.


Here is Blue Bayou on the second day. It is a small flower, about 5", but the color is saturated and I love this one.

It is absolutley gorgeous. This will sure make my garden pop!

What a wonderful color this one has and I know I need it! Love to mix the solid color ones in with the multi; makes them all stand out and shine.

Tussee

love the color. Come to think of it, I think I might have one blue, lol. But seriously, yours is beautiful.

Beautiful color on this hibiscus. I only remember going to my grandparents house on May Day and making May baskets to give to all of the neighbors. I loved picking the violets and dandelions from the lawn.

Oh yes, I forgot about May baskets. We hung them on the neighbor's door knobs to surprize them. My father would have had a stroke if we had dandelions in the lawn; he was more than a bit uptight about his grass, but we had plenty of violets in the garden.

Arde, nice blue shade. May have to get one for my blue genes.............LOL.get it? blue GENES???


I tend to amuse myself easily..
