I noticed that there was a call to share our flower pictures to brighten up the scene on these cold winter days.
I love fuchsias and have enjoyed growing them. I found these in one of our park a couple of months ago. I love taking pictures of flowers and I clicked these.
I love the many different colors fuchsias come in. Locally these (colors in the picture) are not yet available.. I hope to have a few plants of my own when I get to buy one. I really love these flowers.

Beautiful flowers you have posted. I thought she wanted us to share them on her post and that was what I did. I added some flower pictures to her post. I added them in a lot of comments on her post. I thought that was where we were suppose to add them .

You could always do a post now, Ann, even if you use one of the same photos.

The people who already commented won't see yours, so do your own post.

@AbbyGreenhill Oh really. I was sure she wanted us to post them here for everyone. That is why I didn't do my own post for this.

@infatuatedbby The two tones and the shape makes this flower one of my favorite flowers.

very lovely, funny that a random trend I think I may have started, has gone as far as it did. Nice to see color on a cold day with frost on the ground

@Jessicalynnt Here the spring is over and we have already stepped into our long summers. There wasn't any spring at all so to say.

@sofssu our falls are like that, well usually. this one was warm then cold, and then warm again. Right now temps are what one might associate with fall, and not winter, which is also odd.

@sofssu Yes, they require shade. My mother had one years ago and it had the perfect shade.

I love these, I have some in the back yard, when I was a kid, I used to love popping these open. This is what my grandmother used to grow in her front yard, these are beautiful

@CookieMonster46 Hmm they are too pretty to be popped. But I guess as a kid its tempting to do just that.

@sofssu at some point they will open up as in the picture, I was a kid bored, nothing much to do outside, so played with the flowers.. Heck even as an adult, I might just pop one.. haven't thought about it.

A pretty pink flower to bring some springtime to our rather dull & dreary winter day today
