Rose : Fragrant Apricot フレグラントアプリコット

After arising a bit late and rushing into the park, I hastened to find a quick composition during the brief appearance of sunrise color, but what I remember the most was the intoxicating fragrance of desert spring flowers that persisted on morning's faint breeze--in Arches National Park, near Moab, Utah.
Much of the western United States got a good bit more rainfall this past winter than usual--especially compared to recent years of drought across the west--and I'd hoped to find the arid parklands carpeted in ephemeral wildlfowers. As it turned out though, it wasn't a particularly showy bloom here in Arches, meaning you could miss it if you only looked from the car window, but some time on foot revealed a profusion of small yellow, white and occasionally orange, blooms covering several varieties of the hardly bushes that populate this red rock wonderland.
Thanks for viewing.
This Fragrant Cloud rose lives up to its name, with a classic rose scent. It's in a raised bed at the farm, with 12 other bushes.

another image from the archives: bei hai with the white pagoda and the sun setting behind xiang shan gong yuan [video from the fragrant hills]. shot from jing shan gong yuan, the hill directly north of the forbidden city, beijing, china, on may 24th, 2008.
this image was shot just a bit after this one, but processed last night. i wish i'd known more about photography then
this is geotagged, looking northwest.
This year is the best one for roses that we've seen in a long time. There seems to be a contest to see how many flowers can blossom in one cluster.
BONICA
Shrub Rose
A very pretty, yet tough rose, bearing dainty clusters of flowers on a nice sturdy shrub
Bears dainty clusters of attractive, small to medium-sized, mid pink flowers. If they are not dead-headed they will be followed by a wonderful crop of bright red hips, which last long into the winter. It forms a nice, sturdy shrub with tidy, spreading growth and ample foliage. It is hardy, very healthy and extremely reliable, making it one of the most widely planted of all roses. Meilland, 1981 (Meilland developed the renowned Peace Rose - its amazing story is included with my photo of that rose)
today has been a mammoth dog bathing day and trimming Evie too, I'm tired lol. This is the result, worth it :)
Olive did good, she even allowed me to blow dry her, result!
A collage of wet pups can be seen below
There was a thunderstorm brewing as I stopped to take a few shots of the wildflowers near a ditch in Vernon.
Your views, favs and comments are greatly appreciated!
The gardener at the Lyman Estate greenhouse recommended that I sniff these orchids, and she was right -- they smell great!
Nigritella rubra ssp. widderi, Edelweißboden, Stytria, Austria. These are my favourite Nigritellas as their colour is delightful and their smell so sweet.

Plenty in my garden.
What we wrongly call 'Geranium' are actually 'Pelargonium'... from my garden, where they grow faster than 'weeds'. LOL.
WILD(?) Geranium Ingwersen's Variety (Cranesbill, Perennial Geranium)
Pleasant light pink flowers with pronounced sepals on strong stems.
Macro-rhizum are more drought tolerant than other Cranesbills.
The semi-evergreen aromatic leaves of Geranium Ingwersen's Variety are tinted bronze-red in fall and foliage can be dried for potpourri.
It has a very particular, quite strong smell.
Bees love them.
Thank you for your visit, M, (*_*)

Gymnadenia conopsea
Derbyshire.
Not the most showy of our native orchids but it does have a wonderful scent.

When I first became interested in Orchids, a Fragrant Orchid was just that - now they have been split into three species. The one I have always been familiar with is the Chalk Fragrant, common on the South Downs near my home. This year I set out to find the other two.
I had actually already seen Heath Fragrant without realising it - way back in my photostream there is a shot of a Chequered Skipper nectaring on one in Scotland. In Sussex, they are only to be found on Ashdown Forest and, as I anticipated, were virtually indistinguishable from those I was familiar with (there are subtle differences in flower shape and scent).
I fully expected Marsh Fragrant-Orchids would be similarly indistinct, particularly as here in Sussex, they can also be found on chalk grassland and I wondered whether I'd be able be to identify them with confidence. In fact, I was quite taken by them.
Whilst the differences in flower shape and scent are again subtle, they are much larger (more than twice the height) and altogether more impressive plants with taller, more densely packed flower spikes (hence the scientific name) and a deeper colour than either Chalk or Heath Fragrant-Orchids with a peak flowering period that is at least a month later than the other two.
Our Gardenia bushes have been blooming for a few weeks now, and there are times when we walk outside and are greeted with their wonderful heavenly scent.
It's times like this I'm reminded just how much my Mother loved gardenias, and her favorite perfume was Jungle Gardenia. So it's no wonder she planted all those gardenia bushes all over our yard.
The Fragrant Cloud rose bush at the farm is looking its best now, with many healthy blooms and a very zesty scent. The flowers' days are numbered, however, with frosty temperatures looming next week.
Brugmansia (Angels Trumpet) line the pathway at Longwood Gardens. Unfortunately, you won't smell its heavenly fragrance until night.
The American white waterlily, also known as, fragrant water-lily, beaver root, fragrant white water lily, white water lily, sweet-scented white water lily, and sweet-scented water lily, is an aquatic plant. It can commonly be found in shallow lakes, ponds, and permanent slow moving waters throughout North America.
