Sublime and Beautiful Sunday _ flowers shades of red

This post is for #SublimeSunday is inspired by @c0ff33a and #BeautifulSunday is initiated by @ace108.

I hope your weekend is going well

Its cool here, sure I know not as cold as some other places and we haven't had any snow of significance but still, for me its pretty cold, so when thinking what to share today, I thought why not some color and flowers seemed a good choice for that and here we are

Funnily enough when I edited these photos the other day I did not even notice they were all different shades of red

Well I guess red often signifies warm or hot, and maybe thats what I was thinking subconsiously when I picked and edited them

Starting with this one flower I do know the name of a cone flower

A coneflower (genus Echinacea) is a hardy, daisy-like perennial from North America, known for its distinctive spiky central cone and vibrant petals, often purple but now in many colors; they thrive in full sun, attract pollinators and birds, and are drought-tolerant, making them popular in gardens and valued in herbal medicine for immune support.

Now most of these i believe were taken in the Allan C haskell Gardens here in New Bedford, its what I like to call a hidden jewel of New Bedford, such a charming space especially in spring when the new flowers come out, and is so well maintained, and perhaps sadly seems so little known in the city when I have shared posts bout it on other Social sites I have been asked many times where it is

Another flower, a light shade of red, perhaps more pink really but close enough

and the flowers of course attract pollinators such as this bee, the day I took these I didnt have much luck catchign shots of the bees they move around so fast

and to finish off I did selective color on this to hightlight the flower

What a vibrant and warming collection for a chilly Sunday! The shades of red and pink are absolutely stunning, and that coneflower shot is particularly striking. It's wonderful how you've brought a touch of warm color to brighten up a cool day. Thanks for sharing this beautiful slice of spring from the Allan C Haskell Gardens!
