Pink Flower Photo: Bloom in Bridgewater

Pink Bloom Photo by Aquariann

Ogre and I were charmed to stumble across several small parks while exploring the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia last May. During a drive through the town of Bridgewater, we followed signs to Wildwood Park. This pretty pink flower was practically unfurling its petals as we arrived. Does anyone know what the beauty is called? I look forward to what mysterious flowers are blooming when we go back for our anniversary.

How To Plant Your Own Post for Flower Friday:
The only rule to play is that you can only add one link per week! The post doesn't even have to mention flowers, but only ones that do will be eligible for being picked as a feature next week. I will be sharing my flower image on other blog hops, namely Wordless Wednesday, and welcome all family-friendly links from fellow bloggers. Crafters can even link up an Etsy listing or other shop product! But if you want to promote a prize, please add it to my Giveaway Chest Linky instead to entice more treasure hunters.

Please follow my blog through any of the social media icons in the upper right sidebar to receive a reminder to return next week. Adding my button or a text link to your own blog and sharing to your followers is also a fairy appreciated way to help my hop grow.

Flower Friday


Other flower hops where I've planted my post this week include Floral Friday Fotos, I Heart Macro, My Weekend Flower, Saturday Show Off and Today's Flower.

    I wish I knew its name. It is really beautiful! It reminds me of a multi petalled columbine but guessing in the wind here. Thank you for linking with Today's Flowers. Much appreciated :)

    Yes, it's one of the Aquilegias. You should go back & get some of the seeds, really easy to grow & it self-seeds so you could end up with lots!

    Wow I don't know what that is. It's super pretty though! I live in Nebraska. We have less flowers that survive here due to our winters.

    I too believe it's a columbine, but would want to see the leaves to be sure. They are lovely, and self-seed prolifically.

    Hi Kristin, I have been looking for your flowers this week. Am I looking in the wrong place?

Makeup Giveaway: All Natural Mineral Cosmetics by Madison Street Beauty

EDIT: Giveaway is officially closed. Congratulations to Rita Szlovencsák for submitting the randomly chosen 57th entry. Perhaps it's the hot weather and the drought in Delaware, but I have been daydreaming about being a mermaid. That's why I gleamed to discover the Etsy Blog's Mermaid Makeup Tutorial when looking through the list of articles where my new giveaway sponsor's products have shimmered. Madison Street Beauty has dozens of magnificent eye shadow colors that could enhance the sexy siren in any creature. One lucky winner will even get to choose five full size eye shadows, as well as a foundation, a setting powder and a blush or bronzer sample for free. Amethyst, an opaque vegan eyeshadow of medium purple, would be my first pick, fins down. Look at those sparkles! If choosing only five colors is too difficult, why not try some natural samples first? The owners, Bridget and Rhys, are currently celebrating their one year Etsyversary and offering an astonish...
