I’m so glad I took this photo. We had a huge rain and wind storm late Wednesday. Many trees were lost in our community, all my flowers were laying over the next morning. I lost coleus and gladioli, some flowers have recovered, but not many. (I just edited this photo to remove some blurry flowers on the left side, so this is a re-do) smile.
I'm so sorry you lost so many of the flowers in your garden. We didn't get a drop of rain, but I'm glad we didn't get your storm. This is really beautiful. I love your capture of the lighting.
Gladioli, you don't often see these flowers in gardens these days. Shame they were damaged in the storm, a bit vulnerable because of their height. Lovel light through the petals.
So sorry to hear about your storm - they were telling us to expect that today and have had nothing but a few clouds. Hate to see trees destroyed - glad you got this beauty with the sun shining through - the color is so pretty.
@ziggy77@danette@milaniet Thank you so much for your comments! It seems to me these storms are a month late, we usually have these wild wind and rain storms in May.
@snowy@happysnaps Thank you! We worked all day yesterday clearing out everything that just couldn’t recover and mulching all of our beds. I’m sore today, ha!
