Seattle Series: Dahlias in the Garden

This isn't a Dahlia, but I liked the bee in the middle of the ...cosmos?...

This makes me think of  the sun when we try to look right at it....it hurts.

I love the pink stripes running through the white petals.

In hiding

Where the idea of pompoms came from?...maybe...

It looks prickly, but it's not. It's just showing off.

Seattle Series: A Variety of Flowers in the Garden

If you love flowers or colors, or you just need an escape, I recommend that you visit this flower garden by Point Defiance Zoo.

I'm not sure what is offered in Winter, but in summer it was beautiful! I suspect that it is beautiful in Autumn as well with the leaves changing color on the surrounding trees.

There are some great benches to sit and relax on while you are here.

So much color! Great job with planting!

I really like Dahlias and here I saw some that I didn't know existed! (But then again I don't even know flower names other than the very general names)

Hello Dahlia!
