These blossoms made their way through dad and mom's lawn in North Carolina and managed to live well for a few days before the lawn guys came along and chopped their heads off. We have to live well while we can!
I owe it to my daughter's dachshund Clyde for having a seat alongside these flowers one afternoon last summer and thus pointing them out to me. I hadn't noticed them before.

ReplyDeleteYou're so right, we have to live well, while we can.
ReplyDeleteThose are gorgeous! I'm wondering what they are. They look like blooms on some kind of succulent plant.

I think they are ice plant and I can't believe someone chopped them down. Beautiful shot.

I think that is Ice Plant and probably considered a lawn weed. The flower is pretty, really bright and I love your perspective.
ReplyDeleteOH my an icicle plant that has gone wild. They are such pretty things. That Clyde is going to guide you into a whole different world.
ReplyDeleteEstas flores são lindas! Pena que nasceram em um gramado que será aparado!
