Reaching for the Sky on Pink Saturday

Welcome to another Pink Saturday Event, hosted by Beverly, How Sweet the Sound. Click HERE for a full list of participants. You'll find a world of beautiful Pink.


This past week I noticed the Crepe Myrtles were finally starting to bloom. These little bushes have had a struggle over the past few years, but always manage to put out a few blooms for me. I have to say I'm quite embarrassed after looking at these pictures. It truly shows how far behind I am on the maintenance of the yard. So try to over look that and enjoy the beauty of the flowers..lol You can see here how tall they are actually getting. Almost above the lamp post. The other night there was a badger hiding amongst these beauties.




Although there are a few branches that need to "desperately" be cut out the blooms are incredibly beautiful.


Waxy like leaves. The Pink color is so intense this year.
