Flowers before snow... second part

 Just a few more pictures of the mostly the same flowers.

Is this one a hibiscus?  I am not really sure... but, probably. Anyway, it looks amazing, doesn't is?

Flowers before snow... part 1

Everything looked so sad yesterday when the show hit the Denver area. Everything looked definitely better just days before and... we can take a look at the flowers before the snow covers them... 

The wild roses are definitely go for the second round of blooming and, honestly, I like it!

Snow and flowers

We all know that weather here in Colorado is not very predictable and can easily turn to the wrong direction. How'd they say? Don't like the weather? Wait 15 minutes and it changes... By the way, yesterday I heard Iceland's version of this expression - Don't like the weather? Wait 15 minutes, it'll be even worse ;)

Anyway, it was almost 100F two days ago and it was raining and snowing yesterday. And this is not even October yet. Just early September. Just a few days ago I was enjoying looking at the flowers blooming and today they all were covered by snow. All this fragile and tender petals were struggling under an inch or two of heavy wet snow.

I guess I'd better share the pictures. No words can tell you how sad and beautiful these flowers looked today...

Stingers on their way...

Disclaimer - don't look at the pictures if you are afraid to be stung ;)

Walking around and looking at flowers is a great pleasure and you also always can find something else. Actually, someone else.
