Princess flower
‘Princess Flower’ or ‘Glory Bush’ is blooming now at the Volunteer Park Conservatory in Seattle. The flowers are only an inch or two (3-5 cm) but bloom at such a dark time of year here. In the background are chrysanthemums, coleus leaves, and more huge pink mums further back. Do pay them a visit if you are in the area.

Sara, congratulations on your lovely guest friend photos. I had never seen a variegated waterlily before. Did you grow those splendid orchids??? If so, I am totally impressed.
Have a great week!
Beautiful photos. The Princess flower is fit to be a princess.
Congrats on being guest host. Your Princess flower is beautiful as well as the waterlily.
Really beautiful pictures! Like Arija, I haven’t seen variegated water lily before. The orchids are exceptionally beautiful!

Absolutely stunning Sara, as are those on the home page. Have a great week.
This purple flower and the beauties posted on the Today’s Flowers site are so stunning, they are beyond words. Those pinks, especially grab my eye and strengthen my gratitude for nature’s perfection. Thank you, Sara!
Beautiful! The plant lives up to its names. The flower looks like a beautiful princess and the colour is glorious.

Congrats for being the guest friend on Today’s flowers.
Your photos are gorgeous, in both places.
This little blue flower really deserves its name and the orchids are breathtaking beautiful too.
Olá, Sara!
Que fotos maravilhosas que nos presenteia no site Today’s Flowers! Achei interessante conhecer este nenúfar, possui uma rara beleza! O conjunto de orquídeas é um verdadeiro colírio para os nossos olhos… E esta exótica florzinha se destaca neste fundo colorido e alegre. Aqui nós a chamamos de Manacá-da-serra e costuma florir na primavera.
Uma semana florida e cheia de paz!

Beautiful bloom. Great shot!
Beautiful! I posted a purple flower, too, but I don’t know what kind of flower it is? Hmmm….

Nice shot, love the little white edge where the light hits on the petal.
Nice shot !
Sarah, your waterlily and orchids at Today’s Flower are sheer beauty to behold, as is your little purple princess here. (I couldn’t see where to leave a comment over there.)
