Today is gray and mostly dry, so out I went. My dwarf Korean lilacs are blooming; they are shorter and more delicate than the old-fashioned lilacs, but don't have the incredible fragance of those either.

This is a bloom from one of my perennial geraniums. It is about 1 1/2" across when open. I really like the design that forms in the center.

This is from my local greenhouse/nursery, where they are hoping garden weather rolls in soon! Aren't these just the most cheerful watering cans you've seen? I'd love that red one.

I can't pick a favorite here! I love them all. I like the design in the middle of your flower to and that last shot is just so fun and colorful!
Pat - really would like to see your whole garden - you have some amazing flowers growing there! Love the delicate lilac and those watering cans are cool!! :)
Beautiful Pat. I love that Korean Lilac, the bokeh on that image is incredible. And the watering cans are fantastic too. You color on all three of these is just lovely. Are you doing something different these days with it?
I so would love that red one too, and maybe an orange, and a yellow, oh and maybe the purple. You have a great eye for color and beauty.
Oh my favorite is the purple flowers!! Love em!

I think I love the last one. All the colors, just stunning.
love the watering can shot, I can see that on a greeting card or as an Ad for a nursery. And as always you rocked the flower shots!!
*sigh*
If that watering can pic doesn't just call out summer, I don't know what does.
The lilac is breathtaking, I've never seen that variety before.
Love these! It is, a pretty design inside the 2nd shot... hopefully we'll get to see that 1 1/2" wide bloomed out flower soon ;) So colorful on the water tins!! Love it. That be perfect for 'color my world' cause they are colorful AND water the flowers that "color your world" Thanks for the comments in the gallery and my blog Pat :) You take such beautiful photos and are so nice :)

OOOH! These are fantastic! I am loving that your flowers are blooming now, finally. The watering cans are AWESOME. I think I *need* that red one too, it would match my front door! ;)
I'd love to see your yard in person too--I bet it's a beautiful abundance of color and scent!
Pat, each of these are beautiful in their own ways! My korean lilac is showing no signs of blooming this year:(. I love the row of watering cans and your POV with them! And that geranium is beautiful! I've never seen one like it before!
I just love how colorful all your pictures are! Those watering cans are so awesome.
Love that second shot.
