#TuesdayBlue Lupinus in bloom - its deep blue flowers emerging above soft palmate leaves. A quiet reminder of how structure and softness so often go hand in hand. #ThePhotoHour #lupine #wildflowers

A pop of tangerine on a summer Saturday ☀️ This Geum is still glowing strong in late July - a cheerful companion to the poppies in the border. A reminder that even the smallest blooms can steal the show. 🌼 #ThePhotoHour #FlowersOnSaturday #SaturdayVibes

A bumblebee finds its rhythm on a pale purple coneflower (Echinacea pallida) drawn in by its rich central cone and nectar-rich heart. A reminder that even the softest petals can be a hive of activity. 🌸🐝 #InsectThursday #FlowersOnX #ThePhotoHour

A beautiful magenta rose in full bloom, surrounded by hopeful buds yet to unfurl — and look closely… a tiny visitor is making its own inspection of the petals. 🌹🕷️ #RoseWednesday #ThePhotoHour #roses

After recent showers, the petals of Rudbeckia begin to lift - reaching once more for the light as midsummer sun breaks through the cloud. A hardy perennial, loved for its resilience and vibrant late-season colour. #SundayYellow #Rudbeckia #FlowersOnX #SundayMorning

Two busy bumblebees, drawn to the shimmering blue of Eryngium (sea holly) — a haven of late-summer nectar. With its spiky elegance, this perennial is a pollinator favourite. #InsectThursday #bumblebee #FlowersOnX
