What beautiful flowers you have. Thank you for sharing.

Yooper32 06-12-2011 04:54 AM

Oh, my heavens, what a flamboyant bouquet you have given us today. Such colors, such intensity. Some of my favorites there too, "nasty-urchins"& cosmos to name a few. Thank you for morning joy.

You must have a fantastic camera and a green thumb. Mine are just starting to bloom.

Gorgeous! This is the first year I've had nasturtiums and I am loving them. They are so vibrant and have such a sweet smell. Do you cut them back for fullness? I'm trying to figure out where the seedhead is to save that before clipping. I love the leaf shape as well as the colors.

Kappy 06-12-2011 08:48 AM

Lovely flowers. Thank you for sharing.

bearisgray 06-12-2011 08:49 AM

fivepaws 06-12-2011 10:00 AM

Print those flower pictures on fabric. You could make a beautiful quilt and have your garden all year long.

I think they are adorable flowers :)
I have seeds for one that is blood-orange and so pretty.
I don't know about cutting them back...have you tried google ?

emsgranny 06-12-2011 10:58 AM

Great pictures - Our weather has been too hot to even try to grow such beautiful flowers

lisajane 06-12-2011 11:44 AM

do you eat your nastertiums(?)I eat mine in salads the leaves and flowers. They have a wonderful peppery taste

RobertaMarie 06-12-2011 01:25 PM

Thanks for sharing your wonderful flowers. I love flowers. My sweet husband came in this morning with a magnolia blossom from my tree in the back yard. Smells heavenly!!! You must be a lovely soul to have such successful flowers growing in your yard. God loves gardeners as well as quilters.
Hugs from an admirer.

pbreon 06-12-2011 01:47 PM

These are fabulous photos!!!! The quality is superb!! How about creating them into some great framing pics!! ? or even transferring to a printable fabric for a quilt?? :thumbup:

schnupp 06-12-2011 04:34 PM

I don't understand what you had to resist.
Isn't God's creation awesome? No one else could make such lovely colors.

nwm50 06-12-2011 05:21 PM

Thanks for posting beautiful flowers! Been so hot & dry here, it's hard for the flowers to stay perky.
