A papery flower, yet to find its name
Just living is not enough ... One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower.
~ Hans Christian Anderson
This one is a tiny wildflower. It's growing under the cool shade of Petunias.
A tiny variety of perhaps wild pea, grew on its own and it's so very welcome! I love these wild and delicate flowers that grow on their own.
Coreopsis Sterntaler
Each flower touches my soul and gives me indescribable joy.
Geraniums

~ Victoria Glendinning
Giant Pansies
Nasturtiums
I remember painting them umpteen times practicing for my class ten board exams.

All flowers are my favourites as each is as beautiful as the other.
