Strawflower’s common names are Everlastings and Helichrysum. This straw-textured flower Australian plant naturalized in Spain having flowers of lemon yellow to deep gold; the frequent choice of those who love dried flowers. This flower doesn’t loss its form and color when dried. I’m planning to make a customize homemade potpourri, and I think this flower can be one of my ingredient. But not now, I’m still busy and we know that making a potpourri requires a little time but it lasts for few years.

Tropical and hardy water lilies offer many colors to beautify the pond or water garden. Varieties include white, pink, yellow, red, and even blue water lilies. As of now, I don’t have a photo of red and blue water lilies. But these white, pink and yellow water lilies I saw had drawn and catch my attention. I’m sure if you have friends with pond, they will tell you that the highlights of their pond are water lilies. They are adorable, right?

These vivid pinkish, fuchsia to reddish color Dahlias are another varieties of Dahlia. There are at least 36 species of dahlia. Dahlia hybrids are commonly grown as garden plants.

Few days ago I posted one of my favorite color of dahlia – the pink Dahlia.
