Saturday and Sunday Yielded Blooms for Bloomin' Tuesday

These beautiful red poppies were found in Locke, CA, an historical Chinese community, artist and musicians colony...more about that on Wednesdays' blog post.
Doesn't this look like a painting?Also in Locke at a gallery for ironworks... and this...
These were on the side of the road by one of the two ferry boats we took on Sunday
while traveling along the Delta.
A very very old church with it's own blooms...
And on Saturday closer to home:
Are these Azaleas? This bush caught my eye and again car stopped, camera in hand
and I was eye ball to eyeball with these beautiful blooms...
Wouldn't this make a lovely card?
Happy Blooming Tuesday to every one.

    Scrumptious! I wish I was there to enjoy the sites and scents. The world is still brown in Wisconsin.

    Hi Lynn,
    That flowering plant is a rhododendrum, a relative of azaleas. We had one just like it in England.
    The photo of the pink daisy like succulent is the same as what we have here. Sorry I don't know its name. The photo of the poppies are lovely, I just love poppies.

    Beautiful flowers. I really liked the bush against the building. Was that a Camilia bush?
