This week Beth, of Wandering Dawgs gives us a wide-open topic for the challenge; we are to select a subject that begins with B. Immediately I thought birds, yet since I often feature birds in my challenges, I selected blossoms instead. From the moment I spot spring crocus on through the seasons, blossoms cheer me along the way. Trillium is native to this region, and I love seeing it emerge around my yard in early spring.
More spring blossoms above: Camellia, Tulip, Cistus-mickie and Dicentra – bleeding heart. By the summer solstice Hydrangeas burst out in bright blue blossoms.

These spring blossoms are an explosion in color with a beautiful level of detail.
Thank you Dan. Clearly, I love flowers and gardens!
Lindy, I’m so glad you chose blossoms for your response! Your beautiful spring blossoms made me smile this morning.
Thank you, Beth. Knowing my post brought light into your morning warms my heart 🤗
Thank you, Tina. I’m pleased you will be able to enjoy blossoms this summer, if only vicariously ❣️
These photos are lovely, especially the bleeding heart. And, the trillium photo is precious.

Thank you, Barbara. There’s quite a story about trillium, aka Wake Robin. I think I posted something about it a long way back. I’ll look and maybe repost for the fun of it!
Beautiful bounty of blossoms. Love the hydrangea and the red rose.
Thank you, Paul. The hydrangeas are blooming bright blue right now. They don’t last long as cut flowers, but in autumn I can usually get some that dry nicely! Glad you liked the red rose too.
