This darling hydrangea was growing in shade near Seattle’s Volunteer Park Conservatory, perhaps being readied for display.

Alonzo, owner of Our Secret Garden florist in West Seattle, modeled a wrist corsage he had just finished for a wedding that evening. We had adjacent booths at the West Seattle Street Fest this weekend.
Pretty wrist corsage for a lucky mother of the bride.

Pretty contrast in textures of two ferns. The one on the left is a sprengeri and the one on the right is maybe a kind of bird’s nest fern?

This lavender is a very pale pink. Same exact smell! See the bee working it? They love lavender of all kinds.
