Welcome to my Flower of the Day Challenge (FOTD). During the winter months, please feel free to use your archives and find some old favorite photos.
Please feel free to post every day or when you you feel like it. Don’t forget that my FOTD challenge accepts gardens, leaves and berries as well as flowers.

Judy from Lifelessons and I are playing with the Alphabet for flower names. Feel free to play along with us if you want. If you want help identifying flowers that start with a specific letter check out AllMyFavoriteFlowerNames.
If you don’t want to play along please just post a flower as usual.


I’ve gathered a list of challenges and their hosts. So if you know a challenge host, please direct them to my blog. Feel free to contact me anytime. I hope everyone will be able to use my lists.

No Xeranthemum around here, but X marks the bridges across the Blackstone River now that autumn as well and truly arrived. Xeranthemum is very pretty. I don’t think I’ve ever seen them before.

The petals on these flowers feel like straw, hence their common name. They are great for drying too. 😀

The color on your flowers looks almost like a painting — unreal and beautiful. I wish I had some to display, but I’ve never ever seen them growing locally. Our climate eliminates a lot of flowers. Tough winters.

These are pretty flowers. I now know why you love dahlias so much. Compared to the Rose Garden, I loved the dahlias better.

Oh yeah, dahlia plants are so much prettier than roses plants. I’m spoiled with the dahlias.

I now see why. A photograph can’t capture their entire beauty, but it sure is fun trying. We walked over there two or three times at different times of the day to get pictures.

Now imagine hundreds of varieties, a test garden and 40 acres of dahlias 😀
