True Colours Thursday - Pink.


This week's colour is
PINK.
Pink is a name applied to a variety of shades.

The frosty pink of a January dawn.

The pale pink of an early clematis flower.

There are many pinks in this double daisy.

And of course there's the dianthus, otherwise known as the Pink.

A pink rose.

A purply-pink foxglove.

I'd be lost without my garden flowers - can't wait for them to bloom again!

This fun meme is hosted at My True Colours. Participants are linked in the sidebar. Why not find some pink and join in?

The pink dawn is beautiful, but I can't deny the flowers are my favorite. I'm so ready for warmer weather.

I love your Pinks, the Foxgoves are so pretty.

The shades of the colour Pink are a brilliant variety.

That is a great sky shot.

I particulary like your Foxgloves, they are gorgeous.
I can't wait for the Summer.

I've never seen foxgloves so pink, I always thought they had a more purple tinge. Then again, I have lived in the city for 20 years now and I can't remember the last time I even saw a foxglove. Sigh.

Like you, can't wait to get some colour back into the gardens.

Oh the January dawn is only displaced from being my fav shot by those amazingly beautiful flowers ..so springlike .. so reassuring that it will warm up again ... eventually.

Pink - my favourite, most flattering colour. All the early spring flowers seem to be yellow and I long for the first pink rose.

Betty said...

Very lovely pink it is hard to decide on the one I like best because they are all wonderful.

Your post is making me wish for spring even more. Won't it be great to get our hands dirty in the garden?

Just a few months to go...
I have a foxglove as well, and it's due to bloom this year again (I believe they are biannual...)

I have yet to plant any roses, though. My mum's has got a nice patch of wild roses, though.
