Shamrock Blooms Right on Schedule

It was a record breaking 24C [75F] here today - a great day but not so much in the photography dept so you get this little shot of the shamrock plant in bloom. I should have thought to check it yesterday.

Many thanks for dropping by.

So pretty

[☯ Sarah ☁]

For some reason I always thought shamrocks were green, nice to see in person.....so to speak :)

[Judith Johnson]

Such a pretty shot. I think I have something similar in my garden but didn't think it was a shamrock

[K J Buehl]

They are very pretty blooms! Lovely lighting and colors!

[Mike Warren]

Great shot. I have green and purple one in my flower garden. I like them because they stay in bloom all year round down here. They never don't have flowers.

[Junan Heath]

Fabulous shot! So beautiful!

[Anne ❀]

@mwarren365 wow, that would be awesome. they're house plants for us. i should put mine outside this summer.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

So beautiful. My shamrock plant isn't that color. I think I like yours better.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

I was given a shamrock by a student...the flowers are so teensy. Are yours? Or are these some bigger version? This is a great shot...my pics of my plant were not.

[Anne ❀]

@espyetta thanks marybeth! the flowers are pretty small! i t's interesting to hear about people having them outside year round. the plant seems so fragile, i can't imagine it surviving a heavy rain so I don't even put mine out with the rest of the plants in the summer, but i think i'll try it this year.

[Theresa]

Beautiful, I love he colours.

[Shirley Banford]

Very lovely shot. Purple leaves? Is that normal?

[Jennifer Ruge]

Beautiful. . .I like the centers of the tiny flowers.

[Dixie Goode]

Beautiful. I have bitter sorrel that grows here in the redwoods but looks really similar and is green on top, purple on the underside of the leaf

This is so beautiful! Congrats on the pop page. I've been so busy with work (again) that I have fallen behind. Sorry!

I'm used the basic green clover, not these lovely shamrocks. The colors are amazing. I'm not sure I knew they could be red like that. Thanks for sharing.
