Calceolaria, also called lady's purse or slipper flower.

The geographical range extends from Patagonia to central Mexico, with its distribution centre in Andean region.

Calceolaria species have usually yellow or orange flowers, which can have red or purple spots.

 

The white specks you see are pollen!

 

Have a good day and thanks for your visit, so very much appreciated, Magda, (*_*)

the drier these Tulips went the more the wings came up, it was as though the flower wanted to fly....

The petals never fell off.

I love these serendipities!

The unexpected...

 

From the shop!

I love them, they last at least 2 weeks in a vase. Beauties.

Alstroemeria, the genus named after the Swedish baron Alströmer who brought them back from a trip to South America in 1753.

Also called the Peruvian Lily or Inca Lily, is a South American genus of about 50 species of flowering plants.

Almost all of the species are restricted to one of two distinct centers of diversity, one in central Chile, the other in eastern Brazil.

Species of Alstroemeria from the Atacama Desert of Chile are winter-growing plants while those of Brazil are summer-growing.

 

The flower, which resembles a miniature lily, is very popular for bouquets and flower arrangements in the commercial cut flower trade.

 

Have a lovely day and as always, THANK you for your time, M, (*_*)

Sometimes I just 'feeeeeeeeel' like this, a flower image in b&w...

 

I love the subtle tones, all the varied tones, that give the flower/petals/stems their texture, depth and form, their delectable shapes accentuated, extracted and emphasised without the colour.

Don't you agree?

Azaleas are flowering shrubs making up part of the genus Rhododendron.

Originally azaleas were classed as a different genus of plant, but now they are recognised as two of the eight sub-genera of rhododendrons - subgenus Pentanthera (deciduous), and subgenus Tsutsuji (evergreen). Azaleas bloom in spring, their flowers dying only a few weeks later.

They do not need as much sun as other plants; they live near trees and sometimes under them.

I wish you all a great w-e.

I read that viewing flowers and having them in your home either stops you from depression or relief from.

A small price to pay?

 

I have never been depressed in my life!

Is that proof?

Always surrounded by flowers.

 

And despite many 'battles' and causes, my life was not always a bed of Roses, lol.

 

Dark Peonies from my garden.

I could not get enough of their beauty, so photographed them from all angles.

 

Experience the joy they bring to your soul.

A rose is a woody perennial flowering plant of the genus Rosa, in the family Rosaceae, or the flower it bears. There are over three hundred species and tens of thousands of cultivars.

They form a group of plants that can be erect shrubs, climbing, or trailing, with stems that are often armed with sharp prickles.

 

WHERE DO YOU GO TO MY LOVELY… Rose

Thank you Peter Sarstedt

A crying Rose.

The best roses come from my own garden, more fragrant and more opulent they are.

Monochromatic? Not really he? All the shades of grey... from a true black to white... as it should be!

A flower image in b&w...

 

I love the subtle tones, all the varied tones, that give the flower/petals/stems their texture, depth and form, their delectable shapes accentuated, extracted and emphasised without the colour.

First they flowered our spring!

Then, over the summer months, the sun gently nurtured them into berries.

Berries all kind.

Some edible, some poisonous.

Rowan berries, Hawthorn berries, black berries, Elder berries...

The fruits and nuts are starting also

still cold, with hard rain and often stormy winds... interjected by a few sunny days full of hope and promise.

Slowly you see the earth come to life again, the grass turns greener and dashes of colour appear.

Our thick clothing replaced by more vibrant fabrics, boots discarded for daintier shoes.

We begin to feel 'lighter'?

We start to dream of summer, lol.

These are a smaller variety (a flower not much bigger than my thumbnail!), that I have in garden at the moment, I could not resist photographing them in the studio...

I love Physalis. Both to eat and to photograph!

 

Physalis is characterised by the small orange fruit similar in size, shape and structure to a cherry tomato, but partly or fully enclosed in a large papery husk derived from the calyx.

 

The berry also goes by the names Golden Strawberry, Chinese Lantern and Cape gooseberry.

 

Not all Physalis species bear edible fruit. Select species are cultivated for their edible fruit, however; the typical Physalis fruit is like strawberries or pineapple in flavour, with a mild acidity.

 

Physalis fruit is a good source of vitamin C, beta-carotene, iron, calcium and trace amounts of B vitamins.

 

These fruits contain 18 kinds of amino acids .

 

These berries are also abundant in polysaccharides, compounds that may help fortify the immune system.

Gladiolus flowers bloom on a long spike that ranges from 2 to 4 feet tall.

These beauties open from the bottom and work their way upwards creating a long spire of blooms.

The grass-like foliage resembles the blade of a sword giving these flowers a reputation as sword flowers.

The blooms range in colour from bold orange and red to pastel blues, pinks and yellows, lilacs, whites and purple.

 

The gladiolus flower symbolises honour and remembrance, but it has other meanings too.

 

It can also symbolise the following:

   

•Strength of character

   

•Faithfulness, sincerity and integrity

   

•Infatuation

   

•Never giving up

   

Purple, specifically means: Charm, grace and mysteriousness.

This is a re-upload, my most viewed image!

 

The viola is a large family containing 500 species,they are on record in Greece from the 4th century B.C.

 

Later in Europe, it was discovered that a plant similar to a viola grew in open areas. The plant found mostly in fields and amongst rocks in the Alps, hence Alpine.

It became known as a wild pansy (French: pensée ). It might have been a romantic Frenchman who 'named' it... A pensée can be a thought or a saying, short or it can be as long as a paragraph, a page, a poem!

Maybe he thought of his loved-one, dried one amongst some book he carried? Juste une pensée... lol.

 

These delicately fragrant flowers come in a wonderful variety of colours. The dark centres in some flowers are thought to resemble little faces.

These are a smaller variety (a flower not much bigger than my thumbnail!), that I have in the garden, I could not resist photographing them in the studio...

As always, thanx for your lovely comments and thoughts, M, (*_*)

Another one of my 'FLOWER-STUDIES'.

PART II

The second stage!

A personal favourite.

You will find beauty in everything, just look!!!

The back of a Dandelion seed head (clock).

Children LOVE them!

We don't like them in our gardens... AND YET: The dandelion plant is a beneficial weed, with a wide range of uses, and is even a good companion plant for gardening.

Its taproot will bring up nutrients for shallower-rooting plants, and add minerals and nitrogen to soil.

It is also known to attract pollinating insects and release ethylene gas which helps fruit to ripen.

Taraxacum seeds are an important food source for certain birds.

Taraxacum, the common name is dandelion (from French dent-de-lion, meaning "lion's tooth"), after flowering is finished, the dandelion flower head dries out for a day or two.

The dried petals and stamens drop off, the bracts reflex (curve backwards), and the parachute ball opens into a full sphere. Finally, the seed-bearing parachutes expand and lift out of it.

The parachute drops off the achene when it strikes an obstacle.

After the seed is released, the parachutes loose their feathered structure and take on a fuzzy, cotton-like appearance, often called "dandelion snow".Another thing I love about being a photographer, you start looking at things in a 'different' way?

 

About 'BEAUTY'.. artists sculpt, architects build, painters paint, photographers make images... the 'makers' and 'keepers' of beauty of moment?

Take care, be safe!

 

Enjoy and make the BEST of every day! Thanks, M, (*_*)

Dance Me To The End Of Love

song by Leonard Cohen ~

 

The reproductive organs of a white lily, the anthers look as though they cannot stop dancing? LOL

Photographers are the keepers of reality, this flower will only ever be seen like this again, because I 'eternalised' it!

It's gone now, but not completely... the photo remains!

Hope you enjoy viewing as much as I did making the images!
