Friday Flower Pick : Dahlia Delights

In fall and winter, I love to see pompoms playfully bouncing on hat tops, 

or dangling from the drawstrings of a snuggly cape or shawl...

But when spring and summer arrive, in the garden is where fluffy orbs look best!!

...particularly if they're the full and fanciful dahlia type!!

I captured this beauty of a bloom early one morning, 

just as the sun crept over a wall of rose bushes...

...And like a cheerleader waving her fiery red pompoms,

this darling dahlia brought the sleeping garden to life!!

Happy♥Friday!!

Love,
