Pink Dahlias on Nature Friday

Rosy here reporting from Sequoia Gardens to let you know the Dahlias are blooming like crazy! In fact, they are blooming so much it will probably take up most of our August Nature Fridays! This week let's take a look at all the different pinkish variation dahlias I found!

Here we have a pink dahlia with pointy petals...

Don't worry, there are lots of pink ones with curved petals too!

We found a few different pink dahlias with yellow mixed in too!

This one kinda looks like a Mama hugging a baby dahlia..

...and these look like dahlia fire works, don't you think??

Here are our favorite pinkies...

These pink petals almost looks painted onto this pretty bloom!

This pink is so dark, it's almost purple.

We also like the way the petals are spiraling in the middle.

Mama and I both picked this one as our favorite...it is almost the pawfect pink!!

Thanks for stopping by to see our pink dahlias. I'll be back in two weeks with more dahlia beauty!!

I want to warn you that next week is Shark Week around here, thanks ahead of time for being patient and letting Mama get her shark on.  We decided this year we are going to be nice and let Mama make us look all kinds of silly in various shark poses. Be warned tho Mama, you better have the right kind of Chum* to attract all of your

"Dog Sharks"!
