Today's Flowers # 50

My friend Luiz from Brazil does the Today's Flowers Meme, check it out. Come and join with your flower photos. Sunday at 4 GMT is the post time.

My wife purchased a pot of flowers and put them in our herb barrel. They are a beautiful small flower and always in bloom.
It has a USA theme with the red, white and blue.

This is for two of my friends Tipper and Michele. I'm sure you will both enjoy the display.

Have a great day with the neat flowers you see.

The barrel is beautiful indeed. I spend a few hours watching bees work over flowers. It must be fascinating, because I watch 'til they fly away.
