Might be the best dollar I've ever spent :)

With the drought in full swing and not an end in sight to the heat... everything is a bit brown and crunchy around here.
I couldn't resist adding a touch of color to my world today. :)

They are so pretty..

I should do this more often! :)

cowgirl said...: Thanks Mrs JP, they are still so pretty. :)
The store sticker says "godetia" in one spot and "gerbera" in another. I need to google them to see what they are.; July 19, 2011 at 3:10 PM

Don't look to Gerbera's to me, google images indicates these are indeed Godetia or Summerazalea, never had hearded of Godetia's, before.

My folks always have a few orchids in the windowsill A mix of white and pink ones. Good to hear they brought some colour into your life among the browns outside.; July 21, 2011 at 10:07 AM
cowgirl said...: Thanks Joe! :)
When I saw them in the store I just couldn't resist. They are still as pretty today as the day I brought them home.
I can see me doing this again in the near future. lol
Thanks Joe... :); July 21, 2011 at 1:23 PM
