Dried Flowers And Leaves
Along the front side of the Conservatory at Belle Isle, there is a huge bush of these flowers that at first glance I thought was hydrangea. They are not, however, since the leaves have different shape.
These photos were taken at the end of November, and this bush was prepared for hibernation. I love the colors on the leaves, and the dried flowers too.
Hope you all have a great weekend...
Enjoy other entries at Pink Saturday, Today's Flowers, and Mosaic Monday!
