For the Flower Hour, share your images of flowers, gardens, fields of flowers, seasonal leaves and plants, fungus, algae, cacti, blossoms, berries, and wildflowers. Bouquets and silk/faux flowers are welcome.

Like many trees in Northern California, Magnolia trees show off their blossoms between mid-February and mid-March.


Honoring Cee Neuner during the month of March.
Remember, there are no specific themes for the Flower Hour, but please use your own photography. And you have all week to link to this post.
New to The Flower Hour photo challenge? Please check out my page for more information! I encourage “double-dipping” with other blog challenges if you do not want to create a separate post.
