WW - versicolor is in bloom
Geranium versicolor flower. This week's entry for the Tuesday and Wednesday edition of Wordless Wednesday.
Thanks. It's a beautiful little flower - only about 3cm across. Ah ECL I would not have made such a good job of the pattersn. I leave that to mother nature!
Yo, Jams :D I don't think I've ever seen one of those before. It's so perfect, it looks fake! Although I'm sure it is real. Beautiful, thanks for sharing that.
Hi Jams, this is a really pretty flower. Do you have a lot of them? I hope so.
Happy WW! Since some were asking about my Subaru cars, I left this comment on my blog: "Have to confess why I like these cars. I like odd cars, especially tiny pickups. There were only 70 of these brought in to the U.S. These types of little pickups are running around all over the Mediterranian area. They are a regular work horse. Then too the roads over there aren't up to the speeds we drive around here so they fit in better with the traffic.
We found the other one outside our window while eating at Burger King. These girls and their dog had just left the drive through and were getting the food ready. The dog had a hamburger, that is why I like this one, I like clever dogs in action." .. Sorry I have some much space in your comments. ..
I went on a garden tour (7 in all) this past weekend and I was blown away by the hardy geraniums blooming their little hearts out. One of the most perfect plants in my opinion, with lovely foliage to boot.
this is definitely a wonderful work of nature... just look at those lovely veins on the petals!!! and you did a great job capturing this!!! it's simply beautiful...
Just stunning isn't it? It doesnt look real. It's been a while since I've been able to visit you but you still have some of my favorite photos. Cheers!

It's hard to believe the flower is as small as you say. It's very beautiful. The pattern reminds me of leaded glass.
