Pink astrantia
Only three short weeks ago, this bloomed in my garden. Astrantia is one of my new favorite perennials. It bloomed and bloomed and bloomed, and seemed to be perfectly fine in quite a bit of shade. With pretty and unusually shaped leaves to boot, what more could you want from a garden plant?
Visit Macro Friday, Pink Saturday and Macro Flowers Saturday if you have a chance. This one is SOOC, or straight out of the camera, too. If you’ve found only one photo below, click on Sara’s Fave Photos for more.

this is gorgeous, lovely and fluffy and pink!
I love the pink – so great to see a bit of colour these days!
Very nice shot especially being an sooc.
Oh how I wish flowers were blooming here! It was below zero two days ago, just a day after an early snowstorm dropped up to 6 inches of snow. Beautiful flower shot!

That is really lovely. Happy Pink Saturday.
What an unusual flower! I am so glad to know that flowers are blooming somewhere, because I had to scrape the ice and snow off the car this morning…
Fabulous capture.
Wow, what a pretty flower! I don’t think I have heard of this one before. Thanks so much for introducing me to it…I can see how it can be your new favorite!
I’ve never tried astrantia, it is very lovely! I’m curious about your blog address… is there a connection with the publishing company by the same name? Larry
