Una sinfonia veramente spettacolare Pietro, questi fiori sono supendi per colore e forma, immagino anche per il profumo... quale è il loro nome?

Un abbraccio Pietro e buon inizio settimana!

Hi Pietro; Your delightful pictures do these delicate looking flowers fully justice. The plants name:
Kalmia, syn.Kalmiella; common name Mountain Laurel. They are poisonous to all stock, sometimes they were called "Lambkill". They enjoy the same growing conditions as Rhododendrons.
This is a wonderful shrub and I wish I could grow it. Enjoy a great week. T.

Grazie Pietro per l'informazione ho fatto una piccola ricerca sul web e ho visto che oltre al rosa questa pianta, che poi diventa quasi un'albero, ha i petali anche con disegni e colori diversi...

Un saluto Pietro e buona giornata!

Chez nous, nous appelons cela "les couleurs tendres" ! Cela veut tout dire...Des fleurs qui expriment toute leur douceur.

Maalie
Meraviglosi fiori!
Great close-up, the intricate design of a single blossom is amazing, closed and opened.

Symphony is the right term. How glorious are these shots. Let us know the name of this flower when you find out.

Another great set!!

Beautiful! By the leaves it looks like a plant my parents had in their garden, but i do not remember seeing that bloom and certainly not like this!

Pietro, regarding «Louis'» Memorial Day post, Marvin is in his 90s now! He's slowed quite a bit physically, but his mind is razor-sharp. His knowledge of how all the systems work on those WWII-era subs is phenomenal.
Marvin is a national treasure. Admiral Nimitz is buried next to his wife and three other admirals who served with him in the Pacific and their wives. They could have been buried at Arlington National Cemetery, but wanted to be buried with the 'rank and file' in common graves at San Bruno.

Regarding Louis' Sunday Bridge post, he's just ordered a new 18-200 zoom, so he'll be able to pull in more detail such as those lights.

Oh, what beauty you captured on these photos! Stunning beauty as well as photos!
