Sunshine Challenge - Day Six - Hyacinth and Yellow Rose

[smallhobbit]

Today's sunshine_challenge flower is the Hyacinth.

After a bit of a search I found this photo from December 2016 of a white hyacinth



Here are some paper hyacinths I made:

   




But what I really wanted to share was the Yellow Rose, taken in our garden last month:

The paper flowers are so pretty! Funnily enough, I had no clue what a hyacinth even looked like, so this was helpful LOL. You have some beautiful roses in your garden!

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much. Hyacinths are popular at Christmas, when they are grown in bowls - the bulbs are poisonous though, so need to be handled with care. We have a number of roses in pots, since most of our garden is paved.

These are all lovely, and the paper hyacinths are just super cute! :D

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much!

Your paper hyacinths are fabulous, and I love your photo of the Yellow Rose.

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much :)

They're all so lovely. I really like the basket weave planter you're displaying them in too.

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much. The bulb came in the planter, so it set the bloom off really well.

The paper hyacinths are awesome - and that yellow rose is just gorgeous!

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much - I'm delighted you like them!

The yellow rose is beautiful, and I also really like the pot the white hyacinth is in

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much - we bought the hyacinth bulb in the pot and were very pleased with how it turned out.
