Pink isn’t my favorite color, but I love this pink hibiscus I spotted in my friend Lety’s garden yesterday.

This is the same hibiscus I showed a night shot of two nights ago. Who needs diamonds or yachts when she can have a flower like this constantly blooming to enjoy every morning?
I went out at midnight to get something from the car and saw two new hibiscus glowing in the light from beside the door. Of course, I had to capture them, which brought the cats streaming down from the garage. Tricky getting in and out to get the camera as they are wonderful little escape artists, with two or three distracting me while the other two or three slip into the house. Then I had the camera on the wrong setting, so after spending a half hour trying to work with the photos, it finally occurred to me I could go back out with a flashlight to capture better color. In the end, however, once on the correct setting, I could use available light. Then had to narrow the choices down. This beauty was the winner.
These little succulent flowers are tiny, so it is easy to overlook them.
Here’s Cee’s saucy little number for the day.

One last zinnia before I head out. I’ll be gone for six weeks so I may or may not post a flower of the day from Wyoming, Missouri, Minnesota and Alabama! I leave in a week. Lots to do!!
See the most incredible rose photo HERE.

My Zinnias are a bit sparse compared to Cee’s today. To see hers, go HERE.
My zinnias are in as many stages of development as there are zinnias. This one is in its prime.


This flower is just making it entirely too easy and irresistible to pull off those blooms and suck. And yes, they were very very sweet.

Future sweetness.
