Above are the other Flowers (besides the tulips in Monday’s post) that I bought at the Florist’s this week.
On the left: A yellow begonia for my kitchen window.
On the right: a pink streptocarpus for my bedroom window.
I was very happy to find the latter, because this meant finally also learning its name, which I’ve been trying to figure out ever since I got a blue one last summer:
För mina svenska läsare: Kornettblomma är det svenska namnet.
all 3 are beautiful and so spring like. if i could only have one, i would pick the yellow begonia. we have a pink one, but I have not seen yellow before. i like it better than our pink.
ReplyDeleteYellow is my fav as well. Lovely flowers all of them are..

Thanks for posting the yellow begonia. I don't care for begonias, but that was before I saw this yellow one! I have never seen a yellow one and it is BEAUTIFUL!! I didn't even know there was such a thing. As to the other flower, the blue one is gorgeous and intense!!! It does not look that much like the purple one to me, though! Iteresting that they are the same flower, I have never heard of it, either. I always love learning new things on your blogs. Beauty AND education!
ReplyDeleteI was going to say that the one on the right looks like it has leaves of what in the UK we would call primula or primrose. I see it is called a Cape Primrose. I haven't checked to see if it's the same family as the ones I know as primulas. Must do that.
