Colors of Sunsets and Flowers
Last evening I watched the sunset—it bloomed orange, yellow, white, mauve, and a tiny bit of pale pink.



This afternoon, I saw the colors of the sunset in my garden. Orange fritillaries on mauve milkweed blossoms:

Orange daylilies:


Yellow daylilies too:


Yellow prickly pear:

Yellow squash blossoms:

White oak-leaf hydrangea:

And white yucca:

Pink roses:

And pink lilies:

But the sunset didn't have the color of Job's tears:

Or my butterfly bush (except for the butterfly):

Or even this yarrow:

Still, it was pretty colorful.

I wish I knew all the names of everything like you do. I have some of that stuff. But I'll never remember.

Your photos are simply gorgeous! That is such a colorful sunset. All your flowers are so pretty and you have such a variety.
Beautiful!
I think the 'tears' you gave me dried up!!
Need to try again this year...
Yummy! I haven't feasted on a sunset like that in weeks. We were hit with another storm last night.
