Today’s Flowers: Periwinkle, Lilac, and Dogwood
May 3rd, 2009 by Leora
Periwinkle is growing on the side of my house: it’s a great ground cover for shady spots.
The lilac blooms have already fallen off my neighbor’s bush. They don’t last long.
The dogwood flowers are such a pleasure to view in bloom.

Another beautiful collection of floral pictures!
I definitely know these beauties in my neck of the woods. Nice shots of them.
Very nice and the painting is wonderful! I’ve always wanted to paint. The closest I get is the photography.
Awesome collection of photos Leora, and the last one makes a fabulous watercolor. Thank you for sharing, and have a great week.
Ow, these are such lovely flowers! Thank you for sharing. Have a great week, Leora
Love the painting! I wish I know the names of the flowers I take shots of. Enjoy your week!
Gorgeous – all of them! But the dogwood is my favourite, both the photo and your lovely painting!
Beautiful flowers so nicely photographed. The watercolor is to die for.
Leora: The flower photos are lovely and I really love your art interpretation of the Dogwood. You are very talented.
Leora the water color is gorgeous! I like the photos too but your water is wonderful.
