Wild for Wild Flowers

4/25/2016

Howdy from Texas!

Over the course of the last few weeks I have been out taking photographs of the Texas wildflowers and the 'planted flowers' too, lol.

Plus I've been ever so busy over working, I've hardly had any time for sneaking off with my friends. We are planning a few cool trips and also I have 2 BIG adventures coming up! But in the meantime - please enjoy some flowers pictures.
:D

I also have been about shopping for bedding plants and new pots. I love spring and all the flowers! Don't you?

One green nursery has closed down (I must have been in England when this happened or I would have made the big sale and bought way too much) but I did visit two more + the local supermarket has a good variety. I hate that they sell plants that will not last even a week in out climate. #PissesMeOff

Some of the wildflowers I have photographed you will recognize, some are considered weeds. But honestly but I still like them.

Dandelion

Lantana ~ one ending and one beginning

And in yellow!

All of these pictures were taken in Texas.
Well except for the one listed below--my mate in England sent. Soon it will be too hot here for any flowers, so we are enjoying them while we can.

And it's been storming and flooding (but not here).

The sky always is the most amazing color here. I'm sure the UV (feel the sizzle) plays a big part in it.

The trees are budding out and it feels like Spring!

Then suddenly it's cool again!
We really thought the colder weather was over, but I guess not.
:x

And as the weather changes so does the wildlife! I have seen so many squirrels rabbits, deer and of course lizards while I've been out running. Most are gone long before I can get the phone ready to snap. Also many butterflies and hummingbirds have returned. I take their return as a sure sign Spring is here!

If you follow me on Snapchat then you see mostly blurry video for deer running off, lol.
