Hello friends!
My mom’s flower garden is stunning and lush right now. I finally brought my camera to take pictures of it the other day… and then realized it was out of battery. π¦ I so wanted to take photos that I went ahead and used my phone instead. It was a fun challenge with surprisingly pretty results!
Enjoy one last luxurious abundance of colorful blooms before fall sets in. β€
I’ll keep the captions to a minimum so you can enjoy scrolling and/or using these for phone wallpapers if you wish. I got my mom’s help in identifying each of these flowers as we go, in case you’re curious what kind they are. Okay, let’s get started with this lovely bloom.

Morning glory (blue) and sunflower

Here’s a last picture of a small section of the garden. She grows vegetables too, but the flowers made prettier subjects so I stuck to those for this photoshoot. π Isn’t it so lush?
If you’re local to the area, be sure to check out my mom’s website, Applemint Flowers, or follow her @applemintflowers to find details on where and how to purchase her bouquets or bouquet subscriptions. She does such a beautiful job with all the work she takes on!
I hope you guys enjoyed that burst of sunlight and color. It sure made me happy putting this post together. β€
Which flower was your favorite?
Thanks so much for reading, my friends, and have a lovely day!

Hi Allison! I gotta say I think that the light pink Dahlia was my favorite of the pictures you took. You do a really good job of capturing the beauty! In general, my favorite flower is a white Anenome.
