Here's a pink and orange dahlia that practically vibrats with color. Very pretty.

Renunculus
The sister's, the wedding florist, favorite flower. Lovely in bridal bouquets. See http://myweddingplace.blogspot.com/ for more wedding bouquet ideas.
Euphorbia
This euphorbia is from the garden of Sri Ramadrishna. Far out! I had a couple of euphorbia in my garden in Kingston. Am I mistaken, do these plants have toxic pitch?
Chrysanthemum Flower
Look at this color, lime green, fabulous. My mother loved chrysanthemums, especially in shades of orange. Her fall favorite.
Butterfly Bush
This plant is beautiful and fragrant; however, it is becoming a noxious weed. My expert gardening friend says to pick off the withered blooms and throw them out, this way you can keep buddliea in your yard.

Peppermint Candy Dahlia
This is a good looking flower. I love the contrast, very nice. The Encyclopedia of Dahlias looks interesting, why not check it out?
Dahlia "Yellow Hammer"
Well, well, here it is. I didn't expect to find one. It's lovely and the yellow petals with the purple leaves, fabulous. Wish mine had grown.
Dahlia
What a sumptuous flower. Once I planted an expensive dahlia called Yellow Hammer. Why this name I do not know, and the poor thing never really became anything. This is a beautiful dahlia, very full and look at that center.
