Hot Pink Flowers
Everyone knows the name of this flower, except me! I thought I know, but I really couldn't think of it right now. We woke up early at 6:00 this morning to go to a soccer tournament with my friend/neighbor. So my brain is fried! Yeah, another excuse...
This hot pink color is extraordinary to see, and with water drops it is even fresher looking. I went home between games to visit the local nursery and to take pictures. It is a great way for me to unwind.
Our weather is getting colder, and after spending the time on the open field; it is so good to be inside. We all had our winter gear on this morning, which is crazy since it is only the beginning of September.
Please do let me know the name of these flowers! I know it is a common and popular flower but I am never good with names. Honestly! I only have three kids, and call all three names before I get it right!
Enjoy other entries at Mosaic Monday!
It is the Moss Rose - Portulaca, one of my childhood favorites.

ReplyDeleteThey're certainly hot pink. They look like poppies to me, but I could be wrong because your first commentator already said what they are.
ReplyDeleteI do that with the kids' names too. You're not alone. On the flip side, they sometimes call me 'Daddy' so I don't feel that bad.
Yes, it is a beautiful moss rose!
