Sunday Stills: Pastel Flowers

Posted byDawn PalmerPosted inFlowers, PhotosTags:, , , , ,

This week, I am sharing southern California’s flowers for Terri’s Sunday Stills – Monthly Color Challenge: Pastel Colors, Dawn Miller’s Spring Festival Week #4, and Cee’s Flower of the Day (FOTD).

Last week, I shared the start of California’s desert superbloom. I live somewhere between the desert and the beach, and we have had weird weather this year…but finally, my gardens are starting to bloom.

Pink Camellias burst with pastel color this spring.

First rose in my garden this spring–full of pastel yellows and white.

Everything in southern California is coming to life. Of course, it wouldn’t be spring in SoCal without visiting Disneyland–their landscapers do a fabulous job of planting pastels in their gardens. Even the trees have pastel flowers on them.

Disney knows how to bring out the best pastel colors for spring.

I am looking forward to more spring weather and tons of flowers. Hope everyone has a peaceful week, and you get time to stop and smell the flowers.

I am an avid nature and ecology lover and enjoy sharing my photography in my blog writings. I will often be out early in the morning or late in the evening with my camera, trying to capture the peacefulness and beauty around me.

  1. Disneyland would not look the same without all those pastel florals! But your own florals are stunning, Dawn! I miss seeing camellias–they were everywhere in my former home of Sacramento (aka Camellia City). High five on the triple-dip photo challenge trifecta! It really is great to see Southern Cal green, lush and full of flowers. Our drive down Hwy 15 was highlighted by all the poppies and yellow daisies! Gorgeous!
