Yellow Fading Snapdragons

December 6th, 2009 by

We had our first snow fall last night (really a sprinkling), and now my snapdragons are really fading.

Goodbye, colorful yellow and pink flowers that look like little bubbles. Come back in the spring. And bring the rudbeckia with you.

    It doesn’t snow where I live. It must be awesome to wake up and see the first snow of the season! The snapdragons still look pretty even while fading.

    Snapdragons hang on till the bitter end, don’t they? I’ve had some survive into December here in Ontario, but not this year.

    I love the blurred background. It makes a poetic statement with the snow there

    Oh, they do a little discouraged. I love the contrast of flowers and snow.

    Just in time before they disappear. Too bad they can’t stand the snow. They’ll be missed for sure.
    Please check out these yellow lisianthus.

    I’m surprised you still had flowers.
    Snapdragons and look at that little rudbeckia hanging out in the background.
    Looking at your images I’m now torn between longing for the color and enjoying the snow of the season. :)

  17. You had some color longer than we have….
