Today is Fertilizer Friday and I do not have anything
blooming right now so I will have to fall back on some
pictures taken at the Franklin Park Conservatory.
So join with us over at " Tootsie Time " and ' Flaunt
those Flowers'. Some of you are starting to get some
beautiful Spring blooms already and it has been
wonderful to see all of them as I travel around the
blogs.
I fell in love with this Bromeliad. I believe it was
aechmea "Ruby Sun."
The big pink blooms with lavender were so large
and just beautiful.
Everyone have a wonderful weekend and
since it arrives Saturday.
Happy Spring Gardening !!

It won't be long Lona before you have lots of flowers blooming in your garden! I've been enjoying your pictures from the conservatory!
Beautiful -- and unique -- blooms. :) Enjoy your weekend, Lona.
Your pictures are always so professional. I think you and I have the same camera, but I sure cannot get the pictures to look like yours!
Do you use an auto setting or the flower setting or do you set manually - wish you lived closer!

Bromeliads are great plants it you have the right environment for them.....Happy Spring Gardening to you as well!
The first day of spring and we are supposed to have several inches of snow. Oh well, spring will be all the sweeter when it finally gets here.
Love the photos. I've seen bromelaids grown as house plants and they are beautiful.
You have a great weekend too.

Beautiful tropical flowers. I love those bromeliad blooms.
Hang in there, girl! Your garden is just waiting for a few warm days to flaunt itself. Once Spring gets a little momentum, it's unstoppable :)
I love the exotic nature of Bromeliads Lona. Lovely shots. WE will be having blooms soon!! ;>)
It's getting exciting now. As th days get longer, the anticipatioen is reaching a fever pitch. All we need is a few hours of sunshine...
It's raining again!
I always loved this plant. So exotic! Thanks for the pictures, Lona!
This plant is not my favorite, but your photos are great. I count myself lucky to already have crocuses, snowdrops, and daffodils in the garden - and you will soon, too.
Your bromeliad photos are just beautiful. They are unusual plants aren't they? I do hope that spring finds you quickly so that you can enjoy your own blooming garden :-)
I have killed a few of those in my time!!! they are gorgeous!
thanks for joining me this week
Bromeliads always amazes me! It is always nice to see those flower coming out like that.
Lona,
Soon you will be full of blooms and so happy to be in your garden. The photos of the conservatory remind me of a Florida garden... all those things grow in the ground here.
I've been meaning to tell you how stunning your header photos are... they make me smile each time I click on your blog.
