Pink | Fuschia Alcea Rosea - Hollyhocks

These Holllyhocks are amazing when you see them together. At first glance they looked like Poppy because of the ribbed paper-like petals. But when looking at the middle I thought it could be Hibiscus. However, where I drew the conclusion was the leaves. Hibiscus leaves are not spears or maple-like, they are more glossy and smaller.

They are so gorgeous, and have the same effects on me as the Outer Banks vacation rental. They are a lot of fun to look at and bring me immediate Happiness.





Thanks for stopping by today.

  4. Glorious color and great photographs, Amanda. The crocs I had to wear to see Rufus Wainright at Davies Symphony Hall last night are the same color! My feet are still swollen from all the IVs I had during hospitalization.

  5. I thought they were poppies. The color jumps out and is so rich and vibrant. Those petals look paper thin. What great captures.
