FOTD: Geranium

I saw two beautiful geranium plants at the plant store, and bought them – I’d never seen a two-colored geranium before. I planted this one in my plot in the community garden. In this one, you can see another budding flower underneath! Cee’s FOTD 5/25/20

When they do singing valentines, they always give the lady a red rose! Cee’s FOTD 2/14/20. Happy Valentine’s Day!

FOTD: Snowdrops
